Summary

In this chapter, we configured the Tuxedo application's sanity checks and witnessed how it restarts crashed processes. We learned about sizing queues and how those queues are used to deliver requests and responses between the client and server. Finally, we learned about services and their relationship with queues by modifying the configuration and examining the application behavior.

We have learned a lot about the inner workings of Tuxedo and message queues, but the message itself and the data contained in queues remain abstract and mysterious. There are specific message data types that Tuxedo supports and we will learn about these in the next chapter.
