Finally, let's talk about queuing. We are not going to cover queuing in this class, but if we are taking the survey of the range of possible ways
0:11
of communicating with services, queuing probably shouldn't be left out. So queuing is typically done sort of behind the firewall, right,
0:17
so I've got a set of apps they are running behind the firewall, one of them is going to get some sort of operation,
0:24
it's going to add some kind of work or message to the queue later on asynchronously another app that might pick that up and do something,
0:33
so for example, hey I am a web server, will you send an email to this person, and I am going to carry on serving at my web pages.
0:39
Some other sort of email work or process might grab that go yeah sure, I will start the outbound email campaign to this person.

That is queuing, we are not going to cover queuing in this class, but just to round down the spectrum there you have it.
