Zusammenfassung:The order of messages in an asynchronous message system is preserved, by generating a message and tagging the generated message with a sequence identifier and a sequence number. The order of messages is further preserved by processing the tagged message by checking a log to determine whether the sequence identifier is in the log, sending the tagged message to a selected consumer if the sequence identifier is not in the log and sending the tagged message to a particular consumer if the sequence identifier is in the log. Still further, the order of messages is preserved by writing an entry to the log having the sequence identifier and the sequence number of the tagged message and a consumer identifier of the selected consumer if the sequence identifier of the tagged message is not in the log.
