Boomi Atom Queuing

• Boomi offers Message queueing through Atom Queues.
• To use Atom Queues, you need to check with your Boomi account representative to subscribe for that feature.
• First you need to create a queue component and create a queue by entering your queue name and defining the queue type from the dropdown list of 2 options.
• Boomi Offers below two types of queues:

1. 1. Point-to-Point
   2. Publish/Subscribe

• Queues are reusable components so you can use these in multiple processes. Mainly we re-use the queues of Publish/Subscribe type in multiple processes as we need to consume the same message and sent it to different downstream applications through different processes.
• Once this queue component is created you need to open Atom Queue Connector from the shapes panel and drag it into your process.
• Atom Queue Connector consists of Action, Connection, and Operation.

Queue Actions:

1. Get – Get the messages from Queue
2. Send – Send the messages to the Queue.
3. Listen – This option is only available if you use the Atom Queue Connector in Start Shape which is used to get the message from the queue as Event-based Integration.

Atom Queue Connection:

You need to select the queue which you want to use to send/get messages. Here you can select the queue if it exists or else you can create your new queue by clicking on the “+” icon.

Atom Queue Operation: 

Here you can select the Batch Size you want to send the documents into the queue. Similarly, you need to select the Timeout in milliseconds that you prefer while getting the messages from the queue.

Once the process is Executed in Build mode/ Deployed mode these queues will be automatically added to the Shared Queue Server/Queue Management.

In the Shared Queue Server/Queue Management Panel under the Atom management you can view and manage the message queues, dead letters, and its referenced documents.
