Time Traveling emails, and async operations

time to read 1 min | 57 words

One of the more important aspects of Message Based Architecture is the fact that messages can be re-ordered. I am used to that, but this still had me chuckling.

Truth you say. Having messages received multiple times (at least once) and receiving them reordered are two main 'features' of messaging very frequently forgotten by programmers. You can always have it Paxos-ed ;-)

Glad to see RavenDB article in upcoming November 2011 MSDN Magazine... “Embedding RavenDB into an ASP.NET MVC 3 Application,” by Justin Schwartzenberger, which explores the .NET/Windows-centric document data store solution RavenDB. It’s worth noting that Julie Lerman’s Data Points column courts a little NoSQL love as well, with her exploration of NoSQL document databases and their capabilities. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/msdnmagazine/archive/2011/10/26/10230308.aspx
