What is ActiveMQ?

Apache ActiveMQ® is recognized as the foremost open-source message broker, designed in Java and capable of supporting a variety of protocols. Its alignment with well-established industry standards allows users to choose from a wide array of clients that span different programming languages and platforms. You can establish connections with clients written in languages including JavaScript, C, C++, Python, .Net, among others. The integration of your applications across multiple platforms is simplified through the widely used AMQP protocol. For web-based applications, message exchanges can be enabled using STOMP over websockets, enhancing accessibility. Furthermore, ActiveMQ efficiently manages your Internet of Things (IoT) devices through the MQTT protocol. It not only supports existing JMS infrastructure but also goes beyond that, providing the flexibility and strength required for any messaging use case. Currently, users can choose between two ActiveMQ versions: the well-known "classic" broker and the forward-thinking "next generation" broker called Artemis. As Artemis evolves and achieves feature parity with the "Classic" code-base, it is set to become the next major iteration of ActiveMQ. To aid users in this transition, there is initial migration documentation available, alongside a comprehensive development roadmap for Artemis that delineates anticipated enhancements and features. This proactive approach ensures that users are well-equipped to navigate the changing landscape of messaging solutions, allowing for a more streamlined experience. Embracing these developments can significantly enhance your overall messaging strategy.
