@arjay_mccandless: Offline Design for iMessage Always important to preserve UX when users have a flaky connection or go offline. #coding #programming #systemdesign
what if the person loses that contact or stops using iPhone and isn't online for months? how long does the message stay in the queue before it's dropped

How would the server know the client is offline to begin queuing messages?

why wouldn’t you also handle send queue locally and do an ack check before sending?

No an efficient way to store offline message in a queue on a server. Store messages in db using fan out the write and fetch the unseen messages to the user when the user becomes online
