VMware RabbitMQ Scalability

VMware RabbitMQ needed to be a more scalable product. It wouldn't perform consistently if you wanted to add workload or users or reduce workload. We faced problems with it during heavy loads. The cloud version is scalable. We can scale it up or down based on our requirements, such as the number of users or workload.

Around seven or eight people were in every group, and many teams were using it for virtual use.

The solution is scalable, although I still need to utilize the clustering option. A single server is sufficient and efficiently handles most of our workloads. It effectively uses system resources such as memory, CPU, and disks, resulting in excellent performance with minimal resource usage.

We had multiple issues with scalability. The product's scalability is rather problematic. It tends to be very complex to maintain with various sharding and high availability options.

This solution is very scalable and the number of users really depends on the organization.

I haven't scaled the solution myself, so I can't speak from personal experience. I have heard that the solution is not so simple to scale because there is a core node beside the solution. There's some sort of smoothing methodology when it comes to the messaging, so I assume it's not so simple.

We have had no scalability issues at all. We have RabbitMQ servers behind a load balancer, with Queue listeners attached to them.

I have estimated that we will be able to scale quite dramatically without any change to network topology.

For the most part the product was very scalable. The only times we would have problems were usually related to Amazon hiccups that would cause the cluster to slow down.

The solution can scale, however, we use a lot of space for Kafka. We have clusters through the servers, and there may be more for each department. If some needs appear, we can increase the number of servers in a cluster to better manage messages. As long as your company can increase the number of servers, it can scale. 

We have about 100 departments that use this solution in some way.

In our case, we have in our department five people and we have two clusters with Rabbit for two different directions. For us, it's enough. We do not plan to increase usage.

Rabbit is a very scalable solution. We could easily queue 50,000 messages in less than a minute. The first day we introduced Rabbit to replace another queueing system that we were using, there was disbelief on the part of the product team because the response was so fast. We need tens of thousands of messages queued in a short period of time, approximately one minute. For example, one user action could spawn 65,000 messages. We also need the ability to segregate different queues. This solution did a great job.
