Distributor process #19

Implement a distributor process. This most likely involves doing the following:

Make Worker be able to be in workerMode \ Must request work from a distributor when it starts and after finishing processing each message
Create distributor process \ Must receive work requests from workers, pair that request with an incoming message, and workerQueue.Send that message to the worker

Was that it?

+1 :)

Who needs this? I don't.

If you need it, you could use RabbitMQ instead of MSMQ - then you get to scale by having competing consumers, which is simpler to set up.

Could still be fun to implement :)

I'd make it more like a load balancer though, so no req/rep between distributor and worker, just distributor forwarding messages to an array of workers

mookid8000 commented 10 years ago

I'd pull in Topshelf and just use MsmqMessageQueue In order to avoid spending time serializing/deserializing

Simple load balancer POC has been made: LoadBalancerService - is just a simple lightweight Rebus endpoint that distributes messages between a number of workers, round robin-style.
