ack: Status from Server
The ack message returns status information from AMPS.
AMPS does not create ack messages unless an acknowledgment is specifically requested. The exact meaning and content of ack messages depends on the command the requests the message.
AMPS supports the following types of ack messages with the general semantics described below:
completed
An operation has completed.
For example, subscriptions that replay from the transaction log can produce a completed acknowledgment to indicate when transaction log replay has finished and further messages for the subscription are the result of new publishes.
persisted
Data has been persisted.
processed
AMPS has processed the command.
Notice that, depending on the command, AMPS may not have executed the command when this acknowledgment is produced.
received
AMPS has received the command, but has not yet processed it.
stats
Statistics for the command.
This acknowledgment is typically produced after the command has fully completed.
