Enterprise systems decouple producers from consumers using message queues. The iOS client sends a message and continues, rather than blocking on a response.

• Survives temporary backend downtime
• Smooths traffic spikes
• Enables event-driven workflows

A direct request/response call fails if the server is down. A queued message waits until a worker processes it. The trade-off is eventual consistency instead of immediate results.

Wrap each outgoing event in an envelope with a type, payload, and idempotency key.

Serialize to JSON before sending to the broker over HTTP or a socket.

Networks retry. Without an idempotency key, a retried 'order.created' could create two orders. The backend dedupes on the key so retries are safe.

Persist unsent messages in a local outbox first, then flush them. If the app crashes mid-send, the message is not lost.

On connectivity, drain the outbox in order. Mark each message sent only after the broker acknowledges it.

For inbound events (push, polling, or a subscription), apply the same dedupe logic so replayed events do not double-apply state changes.

Most queues guarantee per-partition ordering, not global ordering. Design messages so out-of-order delivery is tolerable, using version numbers when order matters.

Log every enqueue, send, and ack with the idempotency key. In enterprise audits you must prove a message was sent and processed exactly once.

On repeated failure, apply exponential backoff and a dead-letter strategy so a poison message cannot block the whole outbox.
