Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Technical Overview

Message Queue 3.7 UR 1

Sun Java System Message Queue (Message Queue) is a standards-based solution to the problem of inter-application communication and reliable message delivery. Message Queue is an enterprise messaging system that implements the Java Message Service (JMS) open standard.

In addition to being a JMS provider, Message Queue has features that exceed the minimum requirements of the JMS specification. With Message Queue software, processes running on different platforms and operating systems can connect to a common Message Queue service to send and receive information. Application developers can focus on the business logic of their applications rather than on the low-level details of how their applications communicate across a network.

The Java ES installer provides Message Queue as a single installable component.
