US Patent 11477157 Asynchronous event-based distributed messaging service

When instantiating a requesting process that publishes a request for a response from a responding process, a method of implementing an event-based distributed messaging service includes identifying a response topic of a distributed messaging service and generating subscriptions for the response topic where each subscription includes a subscription identifier. During runtime for the requesting process, the method publishes a request message to a request topic subscribed to by the responding process where the request message includes a unique message identifier and generates a subscriber using a respective subscription identifier of a respective subscription selected from the subscriptions where the subscriber includes the unique message identifier. During runtime for the requesting process, the method also receives, at the subscriber, a filtered response message from the responding process where the filtered response message is filtered based on a subscription identifier associated with the subscriptions for the requesting process.
