A solution is provided to ensure that messages in a message broker are handled by one and only one version of a microservice application despite there being multiple versions of the microservice application running in parallel. More particularly, one version of the microservice application is designated as the leader while the others are designated as followers. When a follower has a tenant that is then promoted to be handled by the leader via a tenant assignment change, a specialized process is started by the leader that determines the current offset with the offset where the follower stopped handling messages for that tenant. If the current offset is greater, then a specialized rewind operation is performed to process any unprocessed events from the gap. If the current offset is less or equal, then a specialized fast-forward operation is performed to discard the messages addressed to the promoted tenants on the follower.

Message broker handling for multiple microservice application versions

The embodiments include a method for providing security for a set of configuration files corresponding to a remote monitoring application. The method may include accessing a server configured to store the set of configuration files. The server is also configured to receive a connection request, over a network, from an agent having the remote monitoring application, generate an encryption key in response to receiving the connection request, transmit the encryption key, over the network, to the agent, encrypt the set of configuration files according to an encryption algorithm and the encryption key, and transmit the encrypted set of configuration files to the agent. According to one embodiment, the server may be accessed by performing one or more maintenance actions on the server.
