Queuing in Linux similar to queue in Microsoft MSMQ or IBM MQ

Queuing in Linux similar to queue in Microsoft MSMQ or IBM MQ

Post by HO » Sat, 31 Aug 2002 23:01:18



Does Linux offers queuing application similar to MSMQ or IBM MQ, which
is open source (free also??)? Also, like MSMQ is very closely tied to
the OS in Win2K and higher versions (it is part of the operating
system), is there anything similar to that in Linux queuing?

We get data from several sources (applications) and PUT it on the
queue first. Since all the data exists on the queue now, we have a
C++/C# application, which GETs the data and inserts it into a
database. Can we achieve something similar, without having to change
the logic? In the .Net framework, it makes it much easier to interface
with the queue, and utilize all the queuing functionality from the C#
application. Please let me know, if the above can be achieved in Linux
too.

Help is appreciated

Thanks

Similar things available on Linux include:
 - Isect
 - OpenQueue
 - JMS implementations
 - Ivy [sort of]
 - Spread

None are _faintly_ as "closely tied" to the OS as is MSMQ, which is in
fact a "clone" (I believe Microsoft bought MSMQ from an Israeli
software house) of IBM MQSeries.  Note that MQSeries is _not_ "open
source" or "free software" by _any_ stretch of the imagination.

See URL below for a lot of relevant links.

None of these systems are as ubiquitous as MSMQ on WinTendo, which is
actually somewhat unfortunate.  There's a lot to like about IBM's
design.
