Fire and Forget: Good for the military, but not for Service Broker conversations

Generally SSB demo application shows you that the initiator opens a conversation, sends a message and then ends the conversation. The author think it might not a good practice in production.

In the meanwhile, the author suggests another pattern for SSB message conversation. The solution is let the target end the conversation first.  The initiator can simply send the message to the target and then continue. The target will receive the message, end the conversation from the target side and this will send an EndDialog message back to the initiator.
