1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by an upstream broker of a plurality of brokers from a first downstream broker of the plurality of brokers over a first communications link, first message-identifying information of a message consumer, wherein the first downstream broker is closer than the upstream broker to a point where the message consumer is connected to the plurality of brokers;

    configuring, using a processing unit and in response to receiving the first message-identifying information over the first communications link, routing information stored by the upstream broker to route received messages corresponding to the first message-identifying information to the first downstream broker over the first communication link;

    receiving a message from a message producer;

    determining that the message is identified by the first message-identifying information;

    routing, in response to determining that the message is identified by the first message-identifying information, the message to the first downstream broker according to the stored routing information;

    receiving, by the upstream broker from a second downstream broker of the plurality of brokers over a second communications link, second message-identifying information of the message consumer, wherein the second communications link differs from the first communications link, and wherein the second message-identifying information differs from the first message-identifying information; and

    reconfiguring, using the processing unit and in response to receiving the second message-identifying information over the second communications link, the routing information stored by the upstream broker to route received messages corresponding to the second message-identifying information to the second downstream broker over the second communications link.
