This is in continuation of my previous tibco tutorial. tibco rv is most widely used middleware in enterprise world heavily used in banking and many global investment bank rely on tibco rv for there high speed messaging requirement. its used by many trading application to receive high speed data e.g. Market data. in reliable mode tibco provide reliable delivery of data but not guaranteed means if sender sends data to receiver via tibco multicast network , tibco tries best to deliver that data to receiver but there is no guarantee, data could be lost if receiver is too busy to receive it , if receiver is not running or receiver is hang. In some cases its possible to recover lost data by sending "Resend Request".
Resend Request is request which Receiver sends to Sender to resend lost data. if Sender has that data into memory it will resend but if it has already discarded then no way to recover that data and tibco will issue DATALOSS Advisory. Sender will only keep data defined in "reliability" parameter while starting tibco daemon and it normally ranges from 10-12 seconds.
Since reliable is good for high speed messaging where data becomes stale after few seconds and loss of some data didn't matter much e.g. in case of Market data where prices , quantity keeps changing.
But if you require guaranteed delivery where you don't want to lose any message you should consider option other that reliable messaging. tibco provides a solution for this called "Certified messaging".
In Certified messaging , delivery of data or message is guaranteed at tibco level and this is very useful for sending orders, executions , booking message etc where you can not afford to lose any message.
How does Certified messaging works ?
Certified messaging works on registration and acknowledgment principle. In this case we have Certified Sender and Certified Receiver , whenever Receiver comes up it registers with Sender by subscribe on a topic and providing its "name" , this name must be different in a single network for every certified sender or receiver.
For every message Sender waits for acknowledgment from receiver and it will only remove message once it gets acks from all Sender , if any of receiver doesn't sends ack it keep message in a ledger. ledger could be memory based (default) or file based. choosing ledger is critical because if you are keeping too many message you can easily ran out of memory in case of memory based ledger, you can use file based ledger in those cases.
Sender does have option to remove receiver from its list of certified listener , if receiver is not responding message for specified duration of time.
Preregistration can also be possible where Sender has list of certified listener , pre configured in its config file , so it will store message until those listener comes up and start consuming messages, this is useful if sender and receiver are in two different timezone e.g. US and Asia and comes up at different time.
in case of file based ledgers , there are chances of ledger corruption but tibco provides certain tools to check file ledgers , also if you have failover capability in your application you may want to keep this ledger in a shared location preferably in SAN disk , so in case of primary goes down Secondary can still access ledger file.
this is all about tibco certified messaging you can read more on documentation comes along with tibco installation.
let me know if you like these kind of "tibco tutorial" or any topic which you want me to cover , any feedback to improve tibco tutorial series
also any questions, queries , doubt is welcome I would be happy to answer them.
