Message oriented middle-ware - products which implement this concept?

I am trying to learn Message oriented middle-ware (MOM), and in that pursuit referring to online material.

I understand that MOM is used to make two heterogeneous systems communicate by message passing.

I also came to know of various products like:

Are these products implementation of concept Message oriented middle-ware? If so, is there any standard specification for MOM?

Solution

  • These products are typical MOM implementations. There are a few others as well. As for standards, AMQP and MQTT are two standard for MOM communication. While not specifications, they are simply wire level protocols.

    Then there is JMS. It's more of a Java specification/API and less of a generic MOM spec, but it has been very influential for various messaging systems and is widely implemented among MOM providers.
