How can a failed message be recognized to move to DLQ?

Sid D

Jun 11, 2025

By the time a consumer picks a message from the queue, processes it and fails due to message corruption, the message is already out of the queue service isn’t it? Then how can the queue service move the message to the DLQ when the message is now with the consumer service? Does the consumer explicitly put it back into the queueing service?

Please provide more detailed examples of when, who and how messages are moved to DLQ
