Find out in this report how the two Message Queue (MQ) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"I'm impressed, I think that Active MQ is great."
"Most people or many people recommended using ActiveMQ on small and medium-scale applications."
"ActiveMQ is very lightweight and quick."
"I appreciate many features including queue, topic, durable topic, and selectors. I also value a different support for different protocols such as MQTT and AMQP. It has full support for EIP, REST, Message Groups, UDP, and TCP."
"It provides the best support services."
"Reliable message delivery and mirroring."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the holding and forwarding."
"For reliable messaging, the most valuable feature of ActiveMQ for us is ensuring prompt message delivery."
"Very fast for query processing."
"The most valuable feature for me is that it is open source. The licensing costs are really low and they are transparent."
"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."
"The solution is stable."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"A very good, open-source platform."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."
"It works very well with large database queries."
"The solution's stability needs improvement."
"It does not scale out well. It ends up being very complex if you have a lot of mirror queues."
"The UI. It's both a good thing and a bad thing. The UI is too simple. Sometimes you wanna see the messages coming to the queue, and you have to refresh the dashboard, the console of the product."
"Distributed message processing would be a nice addition."
"There are some stability issues."
"Needs to focus on a certain facet and be good at it, instead of handling support for most of the available message brokers."
"The clustering for sure needs improvement. When we were using it, the only thing available was an active/passive relationship that had to be maintained via shared file storage. That model includes a single point of failure in that storage medium."
"The tool needs to improve its installation part which is lengthy. The product is already working on that aspect so that the complete installation gets completed within a month."
"We would like to see Greenplum maintain a closer relationship with and parity to features implemented in PostgreSQL."
"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
"Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"The product is pretty hard to configure."
"It doesn't have any GUI-based monitoring tools."
"If messages pile up until the space of the memory is full, then basically, the cluster goes down, and someone has to log in through the backend and purge all messages."
