Dead letter queue

In message queueing the dead letter queue is service implementations to store message that meet one or more of the following criteria :

  1. Message that send to queue that does not exits.[1] [2]
  2. Queue length limit exceeded
  3. Message length limit exceed
  4. Message is rejected by another queue exchange.[3]
  5. Message reach a threshold read counter number, because it is not consumed. Sometime this is call a "back out queue"

Dead letter queue storing these messages allows developers to look for common patterns and potential software problems.[4]

Queueing systems that incorporate dead letter queues include Microsoft Message Queuing,[1] WebSphere MQ[5]. Amazon Simple Queue Service.[4]
