Hi, all!
We want to discuss opportunity of implementation of the p-2-p messaging
model in oslo.messaging for ZeroMQ driver. Actual architecture
uses uncharacteristic single broker architecture model. In this way we are
ignoring the key 0MQ ideas. Lets describe our message in quotes from ZeroMQ
documentation:
- ZeroMQ has the core technical goals of simplicity and scalability, the
core social goal of gathering together the best and brightest minds in
distributed computing to build real, lasting solutions, and the political
goal of breaking the old hegemony of centralization, as represented by most
existing messaging systems prior to ZeroMQ.
- The ZeroMQ Message Transport Protocol (ZMTP) is a transport layer
protocol for exchanging messages between two peers over a connected
transport layer such as TCP.
- The two peers agree on the version and security mechanism of the
connection by sending each other data and either continuing the discussion,
or closing the connection.
- The two peers handshake the security mechanism by exchanging zero or
more commands. If the security handshake is successful, the peers continue
the discussion, otherwise one or both peers closes the connection.
- Each peer then sends the other metadata about the connection as a
final command. The peers may check the metadata and each peer decides
either to continue, or to close the connection.
- Each peer is then able to send the other messages. Either peer may at
any moment close the connection.
>From the current code docstring:
ZmqBaseReactor(ConsumerBase):
"""A consumer class implementing a centralized casting broker
(PULL-PUSH).
This approach is pretty unusual for ZeroMQ. Fortunately we have a bit of
raw developments around the problem. These changes can introduce
performance improvement. But to proof it we need to implement all new
features, at least at WIP status. So, I need to be sure that the community
doesn't avoid such of improvements.
Regards, Ilya, Oleksii.
