Transactions vs Publisher Confirms
Compare AMQP transactions with the lighter publisher confirms mechanism, and learn when each guarantees that a message was safely accepted by the broker.
Why Reliability Needs More Than Persistence
Persistent messages survive a broker restart, but persistence alone does not tell the publisher whether the broker actually received and stored the message.
For end-to-end reliability you need confirmation.
AMQP Transactions
AMQP supports transactions on a channel: you begin a transaction, publish messages, then commit. The broker confirms the whole batch atomically.
