You have to design your system so that you consumers can keep up with your producer in the long run. Most producers are bursty and if you use a queue it doesn't matter that for very short periods they are producing faster than your can consume. If this is not the case you can

  • have multiple consumers.
  • drop or combine produced messages to reduce the load on the consumer.
  • push back on the producer to slow down.
