OpenMQ

Just starting out with OpenMQ?  We'd like to hear from you, both new and current users ...

I am just starting out trying to get both our existing as well as our new users to become active members of the Open Message Queue (OpenMQ) community at mq.dev.java.net.

If you are an current user of Sun Java System Message Queue, regardless of the version, we'd like to have you register as a java.net community member and join the OpenMQ community. Simply go to 'Join the Community' and click on Click here to join this project. We would like to use the mq.dev.java.net community facilities to post questions and answers and learn about OpenMQ.

We have also just recently posted a number tips to the Developer Tips section of OpenMQ. We would really like to hear from you on the users@mq.dev.java.net mailing list about your experiences, both good as well as challenging, with both the OpenMQ as well as the Sun MQ distributions of the project.

SPECjms2007

Yesterday, SPEC announced the release of it's latest benchmark, SPECjms2007, a benchmark that can be used to evaluate the performance of enterprise JMS servers based on standard workloads. Lots of people put a significant amount of effort into this benchmark which is not at all apparent from the initial coverage in the press. I am proud to have been part of the working group that was instrumental in getting this done. The credits, posted at SPEC, hopefully give a much better picture of all the folks that were involved.

If you want to know more about this benchmark, look over the documentation found in the Information section of the benchmark page at SPEC, especially the FAQ. Looking forward to being able to post more information about this in the future.
