Creating a FIFO integration

A First In/First Out (FIFO) integration sends messages in the order received from the broker to an individual consumer. It guarantees that messages are processed in order at the cost of a lower volume of messages passed through.

You develop processes from within the Integration Service on the build tab. Event Streams is a separate AtomSphere service, but you will use the Integration Service to create processes that will eventually connect to and the Event Broker.

After you create the connector, you will configure the FIFO status through the subscriptions.

About this task

The Event Streams connector with FIFO integration receives messages from the broker and passes them to the subscriber based on the order in which they were received.
