Broker configuration properties are logically divided into categories that depend on the services or broker components they affect:
Connection services manage the physical connections between a broker and its clients that provide transport for incoming and outgoing messages. For a discussion of properties associated with connection services, see Configuring Connection Services
Message delivery services route and deliver JMS payload messages, as well as control messages used by the message service to support reliable delivery. For a discussion of properties associated with message delivery services, including physical destinations, see Chapter 7, Managing Message Delivery
Persistence services manage the writing and retrieval of data, such as messages and state information, to and from persistent storage. For a discussion of properties associated with persistence services, see Chapter 8, Configuring Persistence Services
Security services authenticate users connecting to the broker and authorize their actions. For a discussion of properties associated with authentication and authorization services, as well as encryption configuration, see Chapter 9, Configuring and Managing Security Services
Clustering services support the grouping of brokers into a cluster to achieve scalability and availability. For a discussion of properties associated with broker clusters, see Chapter 10, Configuring and Managing Broker Clusters
Monitoring services generate metric and diagnostic information about the broker’s performance. For a discussion of properties associated with monitoring and managing a broker, see Chapter 12, Monitoring Broker Operations
