ClusterCommunicationService (Atomix API Reference (3.1.0-beta1))

All Known Subinterfaces:

ManagedClusterCommunicationService
```
public interface ClusterCommunicationService
```
High-level MemberId based intra-cluster messaging service.
The cluster communication service is used for high-level communication between cluster members. Messages are sent and received based on arbitrary String message subjects. Direct messages are sent using the MemberId to which to send the message. This API supports several types of messaging:
- broadcast(String, Object) broadcasts a message to all cluster members
- multicast(String, Object, Set) sends the message to all provided members
- unicast(String, Object, MemberId) sends a unicast message directly to the given member
- send(String, Object, MemberId) sends a message directly to the given member and awaits a reply
To register to listen for messages, use one of the subscribe(String, Consumer, Executor) methods:
```
   
   atomix.getCommunicationService().subscribe("test", message -> {
     System.out.println("Received message");
   }, executor);
   
 
```
