[zeromq-dev] Messaging strategy question

[Wes Widner]

Hey guys,

We're in the process of developing an application which we hope to use 0mq
in if we can get the messaging figured out. It consists of clients that send
messages to multiple workers of various types. At first I wanted to use a
pub-sub pattern because it allows filtering, but I couldn't restrict how
many subscribers recieved the message. I also discovered that I'm not able
to use multiple publishers on a socket anyway.

So my question is how I can best achieve the goal of having multiple clients
send messages to various types of workers and also allow the workers to
communicate back with the clients. Is there a combination of devices and
routing that would achieve this? We've run several tests this week but
haven't found a native 0mq solution and are instead looking at rolling our
own message routing system.

Thanks,
-Wes
