Message Queue Software

Apache Kafka® is an open-source, distributed streaming platform.

RabbitMQ is lightweight and easy to deploy on premises and in the cloud. It supports multiple messaging protocols. RabbitMQ can be deployed in distributed and federated configurations to meet high-scale, high-availability requirements.

Ably is an enterprise-ready pub/sub messaging platform. We make it easy to efficiently design, quickly ship, and seamlessly scale critical realtime functionality delivered directly to end-users. Everyday we deliver billions of realtime messages to millions of users for thousands of companies. We power the apps people, organizations, and enterprises depend on everyday like Lightspeed System’s realtime device management platform for over seven million school-owned devices, Vitac’s live captioning for 100s of millions of multilingual viewers for events like the Olympic Games, and Split’s realtime feature flagging for one trillion feature flags per month. We’re the only pub/sub platform with a suite of integrated services to build complete realtime functionality like showing a driver’s live GPS location on a home-delivery app, instantly loading the most recent score when opening a sports app, while automatically handling reconnection when swapping networks.

Massive amounts of data move as messages between applications, systems and services at any given time. If an application isn’t ready or if there’s a service interruption, messages and transactions can be lost or duplicated, costing businesses time and money to make things right. IBM has expertly refined IBM MQ over 25 years on the market. With MQ, if a message can’t be delivered immediately, it’s secured in a queue, where it waits until delivery is assured. Where competitors may deliver messages twice or not at all, MQ moves data, including file data, once — and once only. Never lose a message with MQ. IBM MQ is available as software to run in public or private clouds, in containers or on your mainframe. IBM also offers an IBM-managed cloud service (IBM MQ on Cloud) hosted on IBM Cloud or Amazon, and even as a purpose built Appliance (IBM MQ Appliance) to simplify deployment and maintenance.

TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™, our standards-based Java™ Message Service (JMS) broker allows any application that supports JMS, whether home grown or third-party, to quickly and easily exchange messages. Fully certified with both the JMS 1.1 and 2.0 specifications ensures compatibility with other applications—as well as a loosely coupled design for less overhead, time, and cost. As part of TIBCO® Messaging, it supports seamless integration for heterogeneous platforms, reduces system bottlenecks, increases scalability, and helps you respond faster to change.

Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) is a fully managed message queuing service that enables you to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. SQS eliminates the complexity and overhead associated with managing and operating message oriented middleware, and empowers developers to focus on differentiating work. Using SQS, you can send, store, and receive messages between software components at any volume, without losing messages or requiring other services to be available. Get started with SQS in minutes using the AWS console, Command Line Interface or SDK of your choice, and three simple commands.

Easily deploy powerful messaging in your favourite clouds and container platforms in IaaS/PaaS environments.

Use Azure Queue Storage to build flexible applications and separate functions for better durability across large workloads. When you design applications for scale, application components can be decoupled, so that they can scale independently. Queue storage gives you asynchronous message queueing for communication between application components, whether they are running in the cloud, on the desktop, on-premises, or on mobile devices

With Anypoint MQ, perform advanced asynchronous messaging — such as queueing and pub/sub — with fully hosted and managed cloud message queues and exchanges. As a service of Anypoint Platform™, Anypoint MQ supports environments, business groups, and role-based access control (RBAC) with enterprise-grade functionality.

To respond to business demands quickly and efficiently, you need a way to integrate applications and data spread across your enterprise. Red Hat® AMQ—based on open source communities like Apache ActiveMQ and Apache Kafka—is a flexible messaging platform that delivers information reliably, enabling real-time integration and connecting the Internet of Things (IoT).

Amazon MQ is a managed message broker service for Apache ActiveMQ that makes it easy to set up and operate message brokers in the cloud. Message brokers allow different software systems–often using different programming languages, and on different platforms–to communicate and exchange information. Amazon MQ reduces your operational load by managing the provisioning, setup, and maintenance of ActiveMQ, a popular open-source message broker. Connecting your current applications to Amazon MQ is easy because it uses industry-standard APIs and protocols for messaging, including JMS, NMS, AMQP, STOMP, MQTT, and WebSocket. Using standards means that in most cases, there’s no need to rewrite any messaging code when you migrate to AWS.

RoboMQ is a software company based in the United States that was founded in 2012 and offers a software product called RoboMQ. RoboMQ offers training via documentation, and webinars. RoboMQ is integration software, and includes features such as dashboard, and multiple data sources. RoboMQ offers 24/7 live support. RoboMQ offers a free version. RoboMQ is available as SaaS software. Some alternative products to RoboMQ include IronMQ, Ably, and Infrared360.

Infrared360® is a complete solution for Administration, Monitoring, Load Testing, Auditing, Statistical Reporting and Self-Service for Enterprise middleware environments.

Apache RocketMQâ„¢ is a unified messaging engine, lightweight data processing platform.

ZeroMQ (also known as ØMQ, 0MQ, or zmq) looks like an embeddable networking library but acts like a concurrency framework. It gives you sockets that carry atomic messages across various transports like in-process, inter-process, TCP, and multicast. You can connect sockets N-to-N with patterns like fan-out, pub-sub, task distribution, and request-reply. It's fast enough to be the fabric for clustered products. Its asynchronous I/O model gives you scalable multicore applications, built as asynchronous message-processing tasks. It has a score of language APIs and runs on most operating systems.
