We performed a comparison between IBM MQ and VMware Tanzu Data Services based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Queue (MQ) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The solution is very easy to work with."
"The usability of the solution is very good."
"The solution is easy to understand and even medium developers can easily start using it."
"This initial setup is not complex at all. Deploying it was very easy."
"The solution is very stable."
"It runs everywhere, from the mainframe in the US to the PCs in the Gobi desert attached to an analog modem."
"Secure, safe, and very fast."
"Integrates between distributed systems: For example, it can help integrate processing between mainframe, client-server, web-based applications by integrating the messages, supporting Service Oriented Architecture."
"The solution has really cool features to use. Its management console is excellent. You can utilize plugins to view the performance of the whole service on one network."
"Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff."
"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."
"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"The most valuable feature for me is that it is open source. The licensing costs are really low and they are transparent."
"The solution is stable."
"Tanzu Greenplum's most valuable features include the integration of modern data science approaches across an MPP platform."
"IBM HQ's scalability isn't the best."
"The clustering capabilities have provided some difficulties when it comes to resiliency. This has been a challenge for managing the environment."
"They have provided a Liberty Profile in the Web Console for administration, and that could be further enhanced. It is not fit for use by an enterprise. They have to get rid of their WebSphere process and develop a front-end on Node.js or the like."
"At a recent conference, I went to a presentation that had the latest version and it has amazing stuff that's coming out. So, I am excited to use those, specifically surrounding the web console and the fact that it's API integrated."
"I can't say pricing is good."
"Scaling is difficult with IBM MQ."
"Scalability is lacking compared to the cloud native products coming into the market."
"We need to have a better administration console and better monitoring features. Right now, they are not good and could be a lot better."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."
"When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use."
"VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"The initial deployment was a little difficult."
"If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system."
