System and method for managing message queues in a peer-to-peer communication network

A system for managing one or more message queues in a unified communication system for a peer-to-peer communication network to improve the efficiency and reliability of the peer-to-peer communications network, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory memory coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is capable of executing a plurality of modules stored in the memory, and wherein the plurality of modules comprise:
• an initialization module that initiates a communication channel between two or more peers over a session through a message queue;
• a queue manager that manages communication between peers through a unified communication system, wherein the queue manager enables the peer to identify the message queue in order to transmit and receive a message, the queue manager further comprises:
• a load balancing module that uniformly distributes load across the message queue for a transaction in the unified communication system based upon a pre-defined condition;
• a queue monitor that monitors the message queue corresponding to a service and a transcode related to the service, wherein the queue monitor further comprises:
• a fault detection and handling module that detects a state of the server in the unified communication system, wherein the fault detection and handling module dynamically routes the messages in the message queue to a next available server;
• and
• wherein the queue monitor further uses a memory map file to determine a number of servers attached to the message queue, the message written in the message queue, and a message read from the message queue for each of a plurality of time intervals.

A non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium having embodied thereon a computer program for managing one or more message queues in a peer-to-peer communication network, the storage medium comprising:

• a program code for initiating a communication channel between two or more peers over a session through a message queue;
• a program code for managing communication between the peers through a unified communication system and enabling one or more of the peers to identify the message queue in order to transmit and receive a message, wherein the managing further comprising:
• a program code for uniformly distributing a load across a plurality of received message queues for a transaction in the unified communication system based upon a pre-defined condition;
• a program code for monitoring the plurality of received message queues corresponding to a service and a transcode related to the service, wherein the monitoring further comprises:
• a program code for detecting a load state of a server in the unified communication system, wherein a received message in the message queue is dynamically routed to a next available server of the unified communication system based on the load state of the server;
• and
• wherein the program code for monitoring further comprises using a memory map file to determine a number of servers attached to the received message queue, the message written in the received message queue, and a message read from the received message queue, for each of a plurality of time intervals.
