Rumsgrcv

Rumsgrcv is a receiver component used within the RumS messaging framework to ingest inbound messages transmitted over the RumS protocol. It is typically implemented as a library or service that sits at the edge of a system and exposes callbacks or handlers for successfully deserialized messages. The principal responsibilities of rumsgrcv are message framing, integrity verification, optional decryption, sequencing, and delivery to the application layer.

Technical features include asynchronous operation, support for multiple transport layers (for example TCP and WebSocket), configurable backpressure, and retry or redelivery policies. It usually provides an API that allows applications to initialize the receiver, register message handlers, control flow, and gracefully shut down. In many deployments, rumsgrcv is used in conjunction with a separate message broker or transport layer that routes messages to the receiver.

Architecturally, the receiver runs an event loop that reads transport data, parses frames, validates checksums, and enforces sequence numbers to detect duplicates. Upon successful validation, messages are enqueued or directly dispatched to registered handlers. The component can also apply security features such as TLS and optional payload decryption, depending on configuration.

History and variants: The concept emerged as part of the RumS ecosystem toward the late 2010s with several language bindings in Rust, Go, and Java. Different projects may implement rumsgrcv with varying baselines for performance, fault tolerance, and observability.
