RabbitMQ Review

It provides load balancing using queues, guaranteed messaging, and queue mirroring.

• Load balancing through queues
• Guaranteed messaging
• Configurable pre-fetch count
• Queue mirroring

RabbitMQ helped us build a database synchronization framework that allowed us to transfer our clients data to our cloud based data processing centers.

The web management tool.

I have used this solution since 2013.

We had several de-clustering problems.

We did not have any scalability problems.

I have never used support.

This is the first solution we implemented.

It was a very simple setup. We had some issues with the home folder being on a non-standard system drive (The location of the RMQ cookie was changed.)

The Community Edition works fine for us.

We evaluated several other solutions; the MQSeries and MSMQ.

Use it for implementations that require a queuing solution. It is easy to overuse it as a universal communication bus of the entire system.
