Agents

Agent is component, responsible for interaction between some target system and bus. You should use agents in these cases:

  • target system API is limited by it's throughput
  • target system API has paid access
  • you need to balance the load in your own target system
  • you need to reduce load to your databases

In general, a typical agent has several methods:

  • Subscribe() - subscribes to a request message queue
  • SendResponseAsync() - sends response after processing an incoming message
