In this blog post we will see how to peek Active and Deadletter messages from a Sequence number in Queues and Topic Subscriptions.
Problem
Peeking retrieves all the available messages without any filters. In Peek mode, the messages will remain in the queue until processed or dead-lettered. While processing the older messages, it’s hard to get the targeted messages from a random list.
Solution
Cerebrata now supports Peek messages by Sequence number where the messages are handled efficiently. The Queue or topic Subscription generates unique sequence number for every message. By providing a sequence number, each message with an increased sequence number can be peeked across the partitions, making it easier to find messages intended for modification, processing, or cancellation of scheduled messages
In Cerebrata, to display the Sequence number column in Table grid, Select Customize View option > Select Sequence number > Navigate the column by Move Up and Move Down as per your convenience > Click OK
