Distributed Objects White Papers

Messaging Systems and the Java Message Service

Overview Messaging systems are used to build highly reliable, scalable, and flexible distributed applications. This article discusses messaging systems in general, providing an overview of their features and types, and then describes how developers can write message-based applications using Java Message Service (JMS).

Distributed applications are proliferating, as are a host of previously unexplored problems of synchronization, reliability, scalability, and security. One solution is a Messaging System built from loosely coupled components communicating through messages. The Java Message Service provides a consistent API set that gives developers access to the common features of many messaging system products.
