A dead-letter queue in RabbitMQ captures messages that fail processing or expire, routing them to a designated DLX exchange for later inspection. This skill configures DLX bindings and DLQ routing to prevent message loss in backend event consumers.

Implementing retry with exponential backoff in RabbitMQ involves requeuing failed messages with progressively increasing delays using TTL queues and dead-letter exchanges. This skill provides the retry workflow configuration to manage backoff timing and route permanently failed events to a DLQ.

Prefetch control in RabbitMQ limits unacknowledged messages per consumer, ensuring fair message distribution across multiple workers. This skill configures prefetch limits to prevent busy consumers from monopolizing the queue and starving available workers.

Use durable topic exchanges in RabbitMQ when you need reliable message routing that survives broker restarts and matches events by wildcard routing key patterns. This skill configures durable exchanges and queues to guarantee persistent event delivery.

Yes, RabbitMQ supports reliable messaging without data loss during backend outages by configuring durable queues, durable topic exchanges, and dead-letter routing. This skill sets up durable processing and error-handling integration to ensure robust event delivery and recovery.
