Abstract

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for maintaining message state at a cursor. A message consumer requests messages from a cursor. The cursor can maintain state information for the message consumers separately from a message log that stores messages. Any of a variety of message delivery assurances can be used when delivering a message to a message consumer.
