Answer from AI

In RabbitMQ, there are several main types of exchanges that determine how messages are routed to queues:

  • Direct Exchange — routes the message to the queue whose name matches the routing key.
  • Fanout Exchange — sends the message to all queues bound to this exchange, ignoring the routing key.
  • Topic Exchange — routes messages to queues based on routing key patterns, supporting wildcards (e.g., *.critical or logs.#).
  • Headers Exchange — routes messages based on headers rather than routing keys; useful for complex filtering rules.

Each type of exchange is suitable for different message routing scenarios.
