Topics

Topics function as channels where producers can publish messages and consumers can subscribe to receive those messages.

Overview

Typically, topics will be organized by the application and business event (for example, Workday Employees or Salesforce Accounts). All messages stored within a topic are persistent and durably stored on disk until they are acknowledged by all of the consumers.

note

Unacknowledged messages are retained for 14 days before they are removed from the topic.
