  The Channel Purger design pattern focuses on the process of clearing old or invalid messages from message channels. This pattern ensures that message channels remain clean and efficient, preventing stale or erroneous data from disrupting message flows.
• Channel Quotas: Limiting Data Flow in Message Channels
  Channel Quotas are a design pattern used in message channels to regulate and limit the amount of data that can be transmitted over a channel. This pattern ensures that system resources are efficiently managed and prevent channels from becoming overloaded with too much data, which can lead to bottlenecks and degraded performance.
• Channel Rate Limiting: Controls the Flow of Messages Through a Channel
  Channel Rate Limiting is a design pattern that controls the flow of messages through a channel by setting a rate limit, ensuring that messages are processed in a stable and controlled manner.
• Channel Redundancy: Ensuring Availability in Message Channels
  Channel Redundancy is a design pattern used in integration systems to duplicate message channels, thereby ensuring system availability and reliability in the face of failures or congestion.
• Channel Segmentation: Splits Channels into Logical Segments
  Channel Segmentation divides communication channels into logical segments, enhancing message routing and prioritization in distributed systems. This pattern is crucial for effectively handling different message types and priorities within messaging systems.
• Channel Session Management: Managing Stateful Interactions in Messaging Channels
  Explore the Channel Session Management design pattern, which focuses on managing stateful interactions over communication channels. Used in enterprise messaging to maintain state across interactions, ensuring data consistency and continuity.
• Channel Timeout: Limiting Message Time in a Channel
  The Channel Timeout pattern in Enterprise Integration limits the duration messages can reside in a message channel, ensuring messages are processed in a timely manner and preventing blockage from stale messages.
• Channel Traffic Shaping: Managing Message Flow and Priority
  Channel Traffic Shaping design pattern provides a mechanism to manage the flow and priority of messages in a messaging system, ensuring efficient and controlled message processing.
• Channel Unicast: Directed Communication in Message Channels
  A design pattern that ensures messages sent through a channel are received by a single designated receiver, facilitating direct and efficient message delivery in distributed systems.
• Datatype Channel: Channels Dedicated to Specific Data Types
  The Datatype Channel pattern involves using channels that are dedicated to specific data types, promoting message integrity and reducing processing complexity in enterprise systems.
• Dead Letter Channel: Handling Undeliverable Messages
  The Dead Letter Channel pattern provides a mechanism to store undeliverable messages for later inspection, ensuring the reliability and robustness of enterprise integration solutions.
• Guaranteed Delivery Channel: Ensuring Message Delivery in Enterprise Systems
  The Guaranteed Delivery Channel pattern is a crucial messaging design pattern that ensures messages within enterprise systems are delivered at least once, preventing data loss in distributed systems.
• Invalid Message Channel: Capturing Unprocessable Messages in Enterprise Integration
  The Invalid Message Channel pattern focuses on capturing and managing messages that cannot be processed by the system, ensuring reliability and maintainability in message-driven systems.
• Message Bus: A Shared Channel for Communication Among Multiple Systems
