Configuring Topics
Hazelcast provides a distribution mechanism for publishing messages that are delivered to multiple subscribers. This is known as a publish/subscribe (pub/sub) messaging model. Publishing and subscription operations are cluster wide. When a member subscribes to a topic, it is registered to receive messages published by any member in the cluster, including any new members that joined after you added the listener. You can create and configure topics using the Topic custom resource.
Configuring a Topic Resource
You can use any of the following configuration options in the Topic resource. For more information, see the API Reference.
