TIBCO Messaging 5

Question 1

What does TIBCO EMS 'connection factory' configuration allow administrators to define?

Accepted Answer

Pre-configured connection settings (server URL, SSL, reconnect) that clients look up by name

Answer

Connection factories are JNDI-accessible objects that encapsulate server URL, reconnection behavior, and SSL settings, simplifying client configuration.

Question 2

In TIBCO Rendezvous, what is a 'subject name' and what wildcard character represents a single element?

Accepted Answer

A topic path where '*' matches a single element

Answer

RV subject names use dot-separated hierarchical elements; '*' matches exactly one element and '>' matches one or more trailing elements.

Question 3

Which TIBCO EMS feature prevents a producer from overwhelming a slow consumer by pausing message production?

Accepted Answer

Flow control

Answer

EMS flow control signals producers to slow down or pause when destinations approach capacity limits, preventing memory exhaustion.

Question 4

What is the difference between a TIBCO EMS 'static' route and a 'dynamic' route?

Accepted Answer

Static routes are configured in tibemsd.conf at startup; dynamic routes are created at runtime via the API

Answer

Static routes are defined in configuration files and loaded at server startup, while dynamic routes are created programmatically at runtime.

Question 5

In TIBCO EMS, what is the purpose of setting a 'redelivery delay' on a queue?

Accepted Answer

It introduces a wait period before a negatively-acknowledged message is redelivered

Answer

Redelivery delay adds a configurable pause between failed delivery attempts, preventing rapid retry storms that could overload consumers.
