1. Producer Think of a producer as a message sender. It’s a program that creates and sends messages.
2. Queue | Message Broker
Imagine a queue like a holding area for messages. It’s a big storage space where messages wait to be picked up. Producers
drop messages into the queue, and consumers
take them out.
3. Consumer A consumer is like a message receiver. It’s a program that waits patiently to get messages from the queue.
