Stream Message Resource
A Stream Message is a JSON message that can be sent at a high rate to an elastic group of subscribers.
- Messages are ephemeral - they can be published (created), but they cannot be queried, updated or deleted
- The maximum Message payload size as serialized JSON is 4KB.
- The maximum Message publishing rate per Stream is 30 per second.
- Message delivery to remote endpoints is not guaranteed.
- Messages may be received by remote endpoints in a different order than they were published.
