  • he architecture in my mind is that an rails application for account
    management(credentials,credits,etc) and rest api  and using
    activemessaging for message distribution. there will be as many as
    queues for each distrubtion type (eg sms queue, email queue). when a
    request comes, the controller will send the message to the appropriate
    queue. A processor will get the message from the queue, parses it and
    runs the logic to deliver it.
  • Absolutely - should work great.  You can scale the processors seprately that
    way, so if you end up getting 10 times as many sms messages to send than
    email messages, you can start more pollers just listening to the sms queue.
    

    Only downside woud be if you had it so a single request should be pushed out
    to both SMS and email for example.  Then you would need to put 2 messages
    out for theone request - again, not a big deal probably, just trying to
    think if there is any real downside.
