How would an Expert to this?

Good evening, Trying to develop a solution the right way. I'm trying to keep this whole thing as modular as possible, so that if one application(except for the manager) goes down, no other application, including the manager is affected. I have one application(process) that manages many resources, it is important that these resources are available 24/7. Different applications( about 20 different ones, each of which at times are taken down for modification/upgrade ) will interface with the managing application for use of the resources. The manager will tell the application that is using the resource that a specific event occured and the application will respond with next action(state machine). The manager will take the action on the resource, and send the next event to the application using the resource... until the application is done with the resource... when done with resource the manager adds it to the pool for availability. I am presently using MSMQ for the communication. I basically send a const recognized by all concerned in the subject line, and if any data is required, I put it in the body in comma delimited format. It seems I'm working really hard to keep this thing together. Additionally, these events/responses must be quick... I can get up to 150 a second. How would you do it? Thanks! Scott!
