Abstract
In managing the backlog of undelivered publications for durable subscriptions, a maximum quantity of publications stored in connection with a durable subscription to publications of a particular topic can be established on behalf of a particular subscribing end user. A new publication published for the particular topic subscribed to by the end user can be received and it can be determined if storing the new publication in connection with the durable subscription causes a quantity of publications stored in connection with the durable subscription to exceed the maximum quantity. The new publication can be stored in connection with the durable subscription; however, the oldest publication stored in connection with the durable subscription can be removed when it is determined that storing the new publication in connection with the durable subscription causes a quantity of publications stored in connection with the durable subscription to exceed the maximum quantity.
