Apache ActiveMQ – Quick Guide

Apache ActiveMQ – Quick Guide ”; Previous Next Apache ActiveMQ – Overview What is ActiveMQ? ActiveMQ is an open source message broker written in Java. It”s fully compliant with JMS 1.1 standards. It is developed and maintained by Apache Software Foundation and is licensed under Apache license. It provides high availability, scalability, reliability, performance and security for enterprise level messaging applications. JMS is a specification that allows development of message based system. ActiveMQ acts as a broker of messages which sits in between applications and allows them to communicate in asynchronous and reliable way. Types of Messaging There are two types of messaging options explained below for better understanding. Point to Point In this type of communication, the broker sends messages to only one consumer, while the other consumers will wait till they get the messages from the broker. No consumer will get the same message. If there are no consumers, the Broker will hold the messages till it gets a consumer. This type of communication is also called as Queue based communication where the Producer sends messages to a queue and only one consumer gets one message from the queue. If there is more than one consumer, they may get the next message but they won’t get the same message as the other consumer. Publish/Subscribe In this type of communication, the Broker sends same copy of messages to all the active consumers. This type of communication is also known as Topic based communication where broker sends same message to all active consumer who has subscribed for particular Topic. This model supports one-way communication where no verification of transmitted messages is expected. Apache ActiveMQ – Environment Setup This chapter will guide you on how to prepare a development environment to start your work with ActiveMQ. It will also teach you how to set up JDK, Maven and Eclipse on your machine before you set up ActiveMQ − Setup Java Development Kit (JDK) You can download the latest version of SDK from Oracle”s Java site − Java SE Downloads. You will find instructions for installing JDK in downloaded files, follow the given instructions to install and configure the setup. Finally set PATH and JAVA_HOME environment variables to refer to the directory that contains java and javac, typically java_install_dir/bin and java_install_dir respectively. If you are running Windows and have installed the JDK in C:jdk-11.0.11, you would have to put the following line in your C:autoexec.bat file. set PATH=C:jdk-11.0.11;%PATH% set JAVA_HOME=C:jdk-11.0.11 Alternatively, on Windows NT/2000/XP, you will have to right-click on My Computer, select Properties → Advanced → Environment Variables. Then, you will have to update the PATH value and click the OK button. On Unix (Solaris, Linux, etc.), if the SDK is installed in /usr/local/jdk-11.0.11 and you use the C shell, you will have to put the following into your .cshrc file. setenv PATH /usr/local/jdk-11.0.11/bin:$PATH setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/local/jdk-11.0.11 Alternatively, if you use an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like Borland JBuilder, Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, or Sun ONE Studio, you will have to compile and run a simple program to confirm that the IDE knows where you have installed Java. Otherwise, you will have to carry out a proper setup as given in the document of the IDE. Setup Eclipse IDE All the examples in this tutorial have been written using Eclipse IDE. So we would suggest you should have the latest version of Eclipse installed on your machine. To install Eclipse IDE, download the latest Eclipse binaries from www.eclipse.org/downloads/. Once you download the installation, unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location. For example, in C:eclipse on Windows, or /usr/local/eclipse on Linux/Unix and finally set PATH variable appropriately. Eclipse can be started by executing the following commands on Windows machine, or you can simply double-click on eclipse.exe %C:eclipseeclipse.exe Eclipse can be started by executing the following commands on Unix (Solaris, Linux, etc.) machine − $/usr/local/eclipse/eclipse After a successful startup, if everything is fine then it should display the following result − Set Maven In this tutorial, we are using maven to run and build the spring based examples to run ActiveMQ based applications. Follow the Maven – Environment Setup to install maven. Download ActiveMQ You can download the latest stable version of ActiveMQ from its official page. Follow the Download ActivMQ to download ActiveMQ. We”ve used the 5.13.4 released on Feb 15th, 2022. Extract the content of archive in the folder of your choice. We”ve extracted to F:/ → Apache → apache-activemq-5.16.4. Apache ActiveMQ – Features ActiveMQ is designed to provide high availability, scalability, reliability, performance and security for enterprise level messaging applications. Following are some of the salient features of ActiveMQ. JMS Compliant − ActiveMQ is fully compliant with JMS 1.1 standards. JMS spec provides a standard mechanism for synchronous or asynchronous message delivery, once-and-only-once message delivery, message durability for subscribers, etc. Connectivity Options − ActiveMQ supports HTTP/S, multicast, SSL, Stomp, TCP, UDP, XMPP, thus providing a wide range of options for connectivity and allows various systems to communicate using their choice of protocols. Pluggable Architecture − ActiveMQ allows to choose a persistence mechanism and also provides options to customize security for authentication and authorization as per the application needs. Multi-Platform − ActiveMQ provides client APIs for many popular languages like Java, C, C++, .NET, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby etc. ActiveMQ Broker will run in JVM but clients can be written using any of the supported languages. Broker Cluster − ActiveMQ allows to prepare a network of brokers for scalability and can support different types of topologies. Features Rich − ActiveMQ provides many advanced features for both broker and clients and support Apache Camel. Simple Administration Interface − ActiveMQ administration console
