internal nomenclature #19

Closed wlandau closed 2 years ago

wlandau commented 2 years ago

What I have been calling a "queue" is really a task queue. What I have been calling a "store" is really a message queue. I think the internal naming conventions should refer to the appropriate terms "task queue" and "message queue". Prefixes "tq" and "mq" seem reasonable.

On second thought, for message queues I had redis in mind, which is technically a "store" (database).
