RabbitMQ

The RabbitMQ output in ArcGIS Velocity allows you to send messages to an externally accessible RabbitMQ broker. For real-time analytics, a message is sent to RabbitMQ for each output feature sent to the output. For big data analytics, after processing completes, all messages are sent to RabbitMQ, with one message for each record.

For more information about RabbitMQ, see RabbitMQ.

Examples

  • An analyst configures a real-time analytic to process and analyze events ingested by a feed and sends the resulting features to a RabbitMQ broker.
  • After performing analysis in a big data analytic, a researcher wants to send the output spatial or tabular features to a RabbitMQ broker.

Usage notes

The RabbitMQ broker must be externally accessible on the internet.
