    Hi Abhikesh..! Are you referring to the "Sequenced Topics" feature? That was deprecated some time ago. What exactly are you trying to achieve? Perhaps there are other ways.

    @Aaron Yes I am referring to the "Sequenced Topics" feature, I do not have any use-case at this moment but just wanted to understand what was use of Solace topic sequence ?

    A Sequenced Topic is a topic subscription for which any matching messages received on the Message VPN are assigned a sequence number that is monotonically increased by a value of one per message.

    How is this feature useful for subscribers? Can they fetch data in sequence?

    It is a deprecated functionality as Aaron mentioned, for instance for resequencing later if you have multiple consumers. The following page gives you more information:

    What does deprecated mean in this context?
    Does it mean it doesn't work anymore?
    Or it works, but customers are discouraged from using this feature?

    The main usage of this was from SolCache-RS which is now replaced by the new Replay feature.

    Sequence number is configured at session level,
    If one session sending data to topic A and B then what is the sequence number will be sent is topic A and topic B?
    Is both the sequence number are same for the message or different.
