Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for configurable pacing in messaging systems. In an embodiment of the invention, a configurable message pacing method has been provided. The method includes receiving a message directed for placement in a repository of an intermediate messaging system into which messages are placed by message producing applications and from which messages are retrieved by message consuming applications. Thereafter, it can be determined if the placement of the received message into the repository will result in a breach of an associated threshold value for the repository. Consequently, a message pacing action can be triggered responsive to the determination that the placement of the received message into the repository will result in a breach of the associated threshold value for the repository.

First claim

We claim:

1. A configurable message pacing method comprising:
receiving a message in a message queuing system having a plurality of repositories in a host server communicatively coupled to multiple different client computing devices over a computer communications network, the message being received from one of the different client computing devices and being directed for placement in one of the plurality of repositories;
determining by the message queuing system whether the plac…
