Understand the Logic: The Apache ActiveMQ and Working Schema
Apache ActiveMQ is a powerful open-source messaging and Integration Patterns server. It is widely used in enterprise environments where reliability, high availability, and scalability are critical for handling messaging tasks. This article will explore what ActiveMQ is, why it is necessary, how it works, and will include diagrammatic schemas to elucidate its architecture.
What is Apache ActiveMQ?
Apache ActiveMQ is an open-source message broker written in Java together with a full Java Message Service (JMS) client. It provides “Enterprise Features” which in this context means fostering communication from more than one client or server.
