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."It's highly scalable. It provides various ways to establish high availability and workloads. E.g., you can spread workloads inside of your clusters."
"The most valuable feature is the interaction within the system."
"It is very robust and very scalable."
"There are a lot of extensible options for security, i.e., various things you can do. It's pretty easy to navigate."
"This product has good security."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the Queue Manager, which lies in the middle between our application and our core banking server."
"The feature I find most effective for ensuring message delivery without loss is the backup threshold. This feature allows for automatic retries of transactional messages within a specified threshold."
"The most valuable feature for me is that it is open source. The licensing costs are really low and they are transparent."
"The solution can scale."
"RabbitMQ will help to remove a lot of the complexities and create a loosely coupled codebase."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"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."
"Large amounts of data can be moved pretty fast using the solution."
"Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture."
"It is expensive. The cost is high. There should be more improvement in the new age of technologies."
"The solution requires a lot of work to implement and maintain."
"They could integrate monitoring into the solution, a bit more than they do now. Currently, they have opened the REST API so you can get statistic and accounting information and details from MQ and build your own monitoring, if you want. IBM can improve the solution in this direction."
"I can't say pricing is good."
"the level of training as well as product marketing for this product are not that great. You rarely find a good training institute that provides training. Many of the architects in several organization are neither aware of the product nor interested in using it. IBM should provide good training on products like this."
"It's hard to put in a nutshell, but it's sort of developed as more of an on-premise solution. It hasn't moved much away from that."
"The product does not allow users to access data from API or external networks since it can only be used in a closed network, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The user interface should be enhanced to include more monitoring features and other metrics. The metrics should include not only those from the IBM MQ point of view but also CPU and memory utilization."
"The product is pretty hard to configure."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
"The user interface could be improved."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"I’d like this dashboard to use web sockets, so it would actually be in real time. It would slightly increase debugging, etc."
"The solution needs improvement on performance."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
"They should improve on the ability to scale your queues in a very simple and elegant way with the same power that they have would be great."
