In messaging systems, message routing is done on the basis of a concept called Topics: First, we need to have topics . When a particular user wants to publish a message to a particular sector, he creates a topic typically with a name relevant to the messages to be published. For example, to publish messages related to sports, a topic by the name of 'SportsNews' can be created and messages related to sports news can be published under that topic.

Users can then subscribe to selected topics and receive the messages published to that topic by the publishers. According to this example, a user interested in sports can subscribe to the 'SportsNews' topic. This way, the user can continue to receive messages published to that topic.

The following flow diagram depicts how messages are published to topics and how users subscribe:

The topics and subscriptions management capability created in the message broker (WSO2 MB). A JMS client can then be configured to publish messages to this topic and other JMS clients can be configured as subscribers of this topic. When the publisher sends a message to the topic, it will be dispatched to all the JMS clients that are subscribed to that topic as depicted in the following diagram:

For example, consider that we have a topic called 'SportsNews' created in the message broker. We can now have users (JMS clients) publishing messages related to sports news to this topic. Users (JMS clients) that are interested in sports news can subscribe to this topic and receive the messages that are published.

Here are some of the key qualities of message routing using WSO2 MB:

• Messages published to WSO2 MB are stored in the DB, which means that all messages published to WSO2 MB are inherently persistent.
• When a message is published to a topic, a copy of the topic is dispatched to all the subscribers.
• A subscription to a topic can be non-durable or durable depending on how the subscriber client implements the subscription. If the subscription is non-durable, the subscriber client will only receive the messages that are published while the subscriber client is active. If the subscription is durable, the subscriber client has the ability to recover the messages that were published to the topic while the subscriber was inactive.
• Topics in WSO2 MB are secured by role-based permissions. This means that a JMS client can publish messages or consume messages from a topic, only using the credentials of an authorized user.
