JBoss Messaging and Red Hat Integration Roadmap

For specific feature road maps for JBoss Messaging and Red Hat Messaging, please visit their respective projects pages. This page covers the road map for integration between Red Hat Messaging and JBoss Messaging.

Please note that the AMQP specification is still being actively developed. For more information, please visit http://www.redhat.com/solutions/specifications/amqp/. Over the integration period, Red Hat Messaging will track the AMQP specification closely as the specification completes.

Red Hat will be uniting the productization, testing and release efforts between Red Hat Messaging and JBoss Messaging to provide well-integrated and tested releases of both messaging projects. At the end of the integration period, the two projects in combination will provide the best solution for the most demanding stand-alone deployments, JEE deployments, and mixed environments. This comprehensive solution will include:

• a messaging distribution that can be embedded in JBoss AS
• a messaging distribution that can be run stand alone on all platforms
• a Linux optimized distribution.
• 100%-compliant JMS support, and Application Server compliance
• Multi language clients:
  • JMS client
  • AMQP clients for Java, C#, C++, Python, Ruby, etc.

Timeline:

• The complete integration is expected to take 9-12 months.
• Once the AMQP 0-10 specification is stable, a command set on AMQP will be provided for JBoss Messaging
• JBoss Messaging will then implement AMQP support in conjunction with Red Hat Messaging for re-use.
• JBoss Messaging will optionally provide the Red Hat Messaging durability model on Linux
• Additional module reuse will then be perused
