A system in which two or more applications send digital records (messages) to one another using standard formats. Also referred to as message-oriented middleware, messaging software was the precursor to modern streaming platforms such as Apache Kafka.
Messaging is the most common way of transporting streaming data. The idea is simple: One system (sender) sends a data record to another system (receiver). The real-world implementations, however, can vary in many ways, e.g., confirmation of receipt or ensuring only-once delivery. As soon as more than two systems are involved, using a message broker or event log as an intermediary to distribute messages to multiple systems becomes handy.
