We want to use Google pub/sub to consume messages. In rabbitMQ, whenever a message published, we were getting it and processing it. Our process operation takes 3-4 hours and because of that our consumers are windows services.
We dont want to use pub/sub pull because we dont want to poll. But Pub/sub push publishing to a web endpoint. Because of our long running process, we cannot use web app or web api. Is there any chance to consume pub/sub messages like in rabbitmq without requesting always and consuming when there is a message only.
Thanks

The Google Pub Sub technology does not requires that one continually explicitly poll the PubSub environment. If one is using the client libraries one can configure a callback function within the client application that is invoked when a new message is published to the topic against which the subscription has been taken.
