Description: An event queue is a data structure used to manage events in an event-driven architecture. Its main function is to store and organize events that need to be processed by a system, allowing them to be handled asynchronously. Event queues are fundamental in systems where quick response and efficiency are crucial, as they enable events to accumulate and be processed in the order they arrive, ensuring that important information is not lost. Additionally, they facilitate the separation of business logic from event handling, contributing to a cleaner and more maintainable design. Event queues are particularly useful in applications that require high concurrency, such as web servers, messaging systems, and real-time applications, where multiple events may occur simultaneously. By implementing an event queue, developers can optimize system performance and enhance user experience by ensuring that operations are carried out smoothly and efficiently.
