hi, apologies if this is slightly off-topic but I'd appreciate advice on something I don't have much experience with.
I'm writing a mud (multiplayer text game) where you can write the game logic in different programming languages; for example, the combat system in Ruby and the movement system in Clojure. The different systems communicate over sockets with a central Clojure server which handles player connections. Message queues seem like a good solution for the interprocess communication so I'm looking at brokers like RabbitMQ. My question is, does a message broker like RMQ seem like overkill for what is basically a small-scale application (most muds never run more than a couple dozen game systems and see more than a couple of hundred player connections), and if so, is there is a more lightweight alternative that you would recommend? thanks, George -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
