I spent over 20 hours on the first lesson of my RabbitMQ course 🙊

But I thought it was necessary, because I assume you are a Magento dev, but may not know anything about message queues.

I’ve seen my fair share of complex terminology in my days, but nothing quite like this.

Messages, queues, producers, consumers, …ok, I’m sticking with it so far. But then there is also the idea of exchanges, topics, routing rules, bindings… it goes on & on.

• What’s the difference between an exchange and a binding
• What about a routing rule vs a binding?
• How do topics work with routing rules?

My head: 🤯

I browsed around the Google to try to find articles that explained this simply. I found a few good ones, but none were as crystal clear as I’d like them to be. They’d take you 80% of the way, but the remaining 20% still didn’t make sense to me.

So I spent a ton of time creating this lesson in a way that made sense to me 👍

It’s one thing to try to understand how something works, but it’s another thing entirely to try to explain it to someone else.

Anyways, enjoy this quick lesson! It’s the first published lesson of my 29-lesson course, Magento Message Queues with RabbitMQ, and hope you like it.

All lessons in this course also come with enhanced transcriptions, and tech-friendly closed captions in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French & German. And of course you'll also have access to the Maggie, the AI tutor who also knows all about how message queues work with M2.

​
University students have immediate access to all lessons in the course that have already been published, and this course will be completed by the end of the month 🙌

​
This week will be all about message queues in Magento, so stay tuned for a couple more emails like this throughout the week.
