Abstract
A system, method, and computer-readable medium for processing in-order messages. A message broker is provided with unique message keys to performing in-order ensuring that a batch of messages are sent on the same message broker partition or data flow. A reactive generic data streaming processor provides a parallel data stream uniquely grouped to each message broker partition or data flow. In-order processing is maintained on each parallel data stream by using downstream publishers that preserve strict order in each data stream. A terminal sync message with a unique message key to identifies end of in-order streaming a message group.
