This is the last part of the Anypoint MQ Series. You can read previous parts here: Part 1; Part 2; Part 3. In this post, we will learn about message exchanges and how we can use the to send messages to multiple queues. We will also see how we can bind queues and publish messages to a message exchange. We may need to send the same message to more than one queue (to broadcast the message); in that scenario, message exchanges can be used.
What Is a Message Exchange?
A message exchanges bind one or more queues so that the message sent to exchange appears in all the queues bound to it simultaneously. In other words, with message exchanges, we can send the same message to all the queues which are bound to it.
