We are setting up custom IFS Connect queues in our project, and are wondering if there is a recommended limit of queues to add. WHat potential issues can we run into if we add too many new ifs connect queues?

This is an 21R2 project. Soon to upgrade to 22R2 or 23R1.

Hi @Malin Norgren,

There is no mention of a limit in the documentation about message queues. If you are planning to add a high number of queues, then it would be better to check with R&D if there are any consequences. 

Hope this helps!

Dear @Malin Norgren,

 

by default, there is simply no limit on the queues. There are only limits in how many processes can be handled actually.

 

What you need to consider are these things:

Is it possible to maintain the amount of queues properly?

Is the ifsapp-connect pod running enough memory to handle the amount of requests?

Have you set your job_queue_processes in the database to a higher level to process everything?

 

Based on my experience, these are the most interesting points to consider.

Regards,

Toby
