ActiveMQ Artemis JMS Clustered Topic Example

# JMS Clustered Topic Example

    To run the example, simply type mvn verify from this directory,
    or mvn -PnoServer verify if you want to start and create the server manually.

This example demonstrates a JMS Topic deployed on two different nodes. The two nodes are configured to form a cluster.

We then create a subscriber on the topic on each node, and we create a producer on only one of the nodes.

We then send some messages via the producer, and we verify that both subscribers receive all the sent messages.

A JMS Topic is an example of publish-subscribe messaging where all subscribers receive all the messages sent to the topic (assuming they have no message selectors).

This example uses JNDI to lookup the JMS Queue and ConnectionFactory objects. If you prefer not to use JNDI, these could be instantiated directly.

Here's the relevant snippet from the server configuration, which tells the server to form a cluster between the two nodes and to load balance the messages between the nodes.

This example differes from different-topic as it will use an URI to define the cluster connection.

    <cluster-connection-uri name="my-cluster" address="uri="multicast://my-discovery-group?messageLoadBalancingType=STRICT;retryInterval=500;connectorName=netty-connector;maxHops=1"/>
