Probably much to your surprise, SMS messages remain popular for meeting individual and corporate requirements. The technology that surrounds Short Message Service firstly appeared in 1984 and maintains its relevance until today.

German engineer Friedhelm Hillebrand with his fellow researcher Bernard Ghillebaert experimented with a system that would enable message delivery through the telephone network using GSM standards. Six years later, their research succeeded, breeding the SMS technology that has been operational until today. GSM network under United Kingdom’s Vodafone became the first that delivered the first-ever SMS in history.

How SMS still prevalent for individuals

Today’s individuals become busier and more dynamic than ever. With smartphones at their hands, they can perform various tasks at once. SMS messages or technically termed as Person-to-Person (P2P) messaging remains popular for two reasons.

Firstly, SMS messages offer concise and straight-to-the-point messages. The rise of Over the Top (OTT) does breed significant growths for apps, such as WhatsApp and Telegram. However, the extreme message volumes may tire some types of people that prefer SMS messages that value a message's importance.

Secondly, SMS doesn’t require Internet connection. The fact helps those living in remote areas to keep in touch with the latest trends. They, too, can still communicate with their friends or family members anywhere in the world.

In terms of brand communication, consumers prefer to receive SMS messages to emails. SMS messages have lower spam rates as compared to emails. In addition, subscribers will find the messages more personal. The Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association conducted a study which revealed SMS texts have a 2.8% spam rate, much below email’s 53%.

How enterprises can tap into the potentials

Application-to-Person (A2P) technology allows brands and organizations to create a better and richer customer communication. The nature of SMS messages creates personal and instant impressions for the subscribers. The brand voice can reach out to their subscribers regardless of their residence and cellular phone types.

SMS remains the most effective communication tool because it can be read anytime. On the other hand, people don’t find email reading as part of their daily lives. Phone calls can annoy some of the subscribers.

To create a complete customer journey, companies need to form interesting and effective SMS messages. Make one that best delivers the brand value while at the same time respects the subscriber’s privacy. Group the subscribers into several levels of brand experiences. Companies can start by classifying them into potential, new, medium and long-term buyers. Compose business texts accordingly.

Majority of techies understand the difficulties of building a well-designed job queue inside a table of a relational database. But obviously for many this may not be the only choice or last choice.

Usually, you create a job queue for SMS messages with the list of the messages in rows.

Although the job queue can be considered as a good design pattern from the developer point of view but often it is challenging to implement in RDBMS because of multiple concurrent operations and high amount of read and write operation of any messaging app.

Further to this, you may also notice that amount of SMS traffic and any possible spike in traffic is highly unpredictable in the real-world scenario of messaging. And at times your queue can be really blocking and may behave differently. In true sense, many of them aren’t really a problem in reality.

But the potential is always there, and we have observed in the past that it’s hard to predict as which thing will become a problem. This is usually because it depends on behavior that you don’t know in advance, such as which parts of your application will get the most load, or which customer of yours has suddenly decided to push a very large campaign.

Let’s go little deeper as why job queues can cause trouble for high volume of traffic and may hamper the overall performance any web application. Job queue works on the principle of polling. It means one or more worker processes are checking for something to do.

This starts to become a problem pretty quickly in a heavily loaded application and two major reasons are explained below:

Reason 1 Locking: Implementation of polling is usually runs a SELECT FOR UPDATE to see if there are items to process; if so, UPDATE them in some way to mark them as in-process; then process them and mark them as complete. There are variations on this, not necessarily involving SELECT FOR UPDATE, but often something with similar effects. The problem with SELECT FOR UPDATE is that it usually creates a single synchronization point for all of the worker processes, and you see a lot of processes waiting for the locks to be released with COMMIT. Even a well thought implementations of this can cause serious pile-ups of message traffic during any sudden spike.

Reason 2 Growth of Data:  This symptom will appear when you have a sudden spike of traffic and a big fat table makes all the queries really, really slow. If you combine this with polling and/or locking and lots of load on the server, you have a recipe for epic disaster.

Now the real question is can we really manage our queues even during such spikes?

The answer is YES.

So, its not the implementation, technology or resource, the biggest challenge is architecture. It may be noted that during sudden spike of traffic, we actually do not increase our upstream dynamically but still, we expect our queue to perform with the same level of performance.

With the years of research and analysis on various heavily loaded real-time queues, we could figure out that the right architecture is the only way in a messaging app to handle unpredictable traffic flow. While thinking on this line, it was also challenging for use to develop something unique which is compatible with the existing system.

Finally, we have arrived to a solution of implementing an add-on plugin called “Advance Queuing System” to pre-process the message queue with an additional proprietary queuing algorithm which will perform intelligent load balancing and inject the message data in primary queue based on various system parameter, such as available system resource, current backlog, in-queue messages, upstream bandwidth etc. Such implementations are very effective in many ways to handle the performance issues in Web apps.
