Non-durable persistence

NuGet Package: NServiceBus.Persistence.NonDurable (1.x)
Target Version: NServiceBus 8.x

Some scenarios require a non-durable persistence such as the development environment or a lightweight client not interested in durability across restarts:

Configuration

endpointConfiguration.UsePersistence<NonDurablePersistence, StorageType.Sagas>();
endpointConfiguration.UsePersistence<NonDurablePersistence, StorageType.Subscriptions>();
endpointConfiguration.UsePersistence<NonDurablePersistence, StorageType.Outbox>();
All information stored is discarded when the process ends.
The delayed retries mechanism uses the timeout manager when a transport does not natively support delayed delivery.

As delayed retries are enabled by default, using this persistence with a transport that uses the timeout manager has the risk of losing messages that have failed processing and are waiting for another retry attempt. Use this persistence only in scenarios where it is acceptable to lose messages.

Saga concurrency

When simultaneously handling messages, conflicts may occur. See below for examples of the exceptions which are thrown. Saga concurrency explains how these conflicts are handled, and contains guidance for high-load scenarios.

Starting a saga

Example exception:

System.InvalidOperationException: The saga with the correlation id 'Name: OrderId Value: f05c6e0c-aea6-48d6-846c-d1663998ebf2' already exists

Updating or deleting saga data

Non-durable persistence uses optimistic concurrency control when updating or deleting saga data.

Example exception:
