describe the parts and the message path.
Planned topics
- Producers publish to an exchange, never directly to a queue.
- The exchange routes messages to queues by bindings and routing keys.
- Queues store messages until consumers acknowledge them.
- Consumers read from queues; the broker pushes messages with a prefetch limit.
- Messages are deleted after acknowledgment; the broker is smart, consumers are simple.
- Protocol: AMQP 0-9-1; run locally with Docker and the management UI.
