At Issuu, we started with an ZMQ / Piqi based messaging (RPC and
broadcast). However we are leaning more and more to using AMQP for
messaging and RPC where throughput and latency is not as critical
(we still handle 50.000 messages/sec through AMQP though).
Amqp handles RPC style messages nicely, and handles client disconnects
and retransmissions in a useful way.
Having a central message broker also decouples the services even more as
the micro-services only need to agree on which Amqp to use and does not
need to know the name of each other.
