Partitioned Queues are now Generally Available with 10.4.0

Solace Community,

I'm proud to announce that Partitioned Queues are now generally available for all in today's release of 10.4.0!

Partitioned Queues are included in the PubSub+ broker software at no extra charge and are supported by our most recent releases of Solace JCSMP, JMS, CCSMP, Python, Golang, .NET, and JS APIs as well as standard REST/HTTP, MQTT 5.0, and AMQP!

Partitioned Queues are a new subcategory of non-exclusive queues that provide load-balancing and auto-scaling while still providing in-order delivery based on the message context like a retail order, a flight, or a financial transaction! You can think of it as Solace's answer to Kafka Consumer Groups - but better!

Of course, it works well-distributed tracing! You can even see which partition in the partitioned queue the traced message was enqueued for detailed event mesh observability.

For more information please check out my video: https://solace.com/resources/videos/solace-partitioned-queues

Keep it real-time,

Rob Tomkins

Principal Core Product Manager, Solace

P.S. 10.4.0 with partitioned queues is coming to PubSub+ Cloud soon!

So we are supposed to use the user property map to set broker relevant metadata?

Aaron

@Linus, that is correct. This allows AMQP and MQTTv5 publishers to also be able to use this feature.

@Linus, yes. More details on setting the partition key are in our docs page here.
