Abstract
In a message delivery system, messages are carried over a network in packets. Server hosts support applications for originating and receiving messages and network interfaces. Switches interconnect the server hosts and form the packet network. Some of the switches are linked to the local server hosts. Distributed filtering/matching modules associated with the local server hosts register interests for applications on the associated local server hosts, inspect packets received over the network or from a local server host to match messages with registered interests and remove any unmatched packets from the packets. The matched messages are forwarded to the local server host for delivery to the applications. This system offers the ability to use special purpose hardware for the filtering/matching function without requiring connections to a common message broker.
