FioranoMQ provides its customers with high-performance, superior flow control, and guaranteed delivery and massive scalability thus enabling them to achieve immediate ROI for their JMS solutions even under today’s tough economic conditions.”
Major Enhancements in FioranoMQ 7.2 include, IN FIORANO’S WORDS:
--Large Message Size Support – JMS applications can now transfer large messages (or files) using JMS complaint API’s. The transfer could employ either the point-to-point model or the publish/subscribe model. JMS Extension API’s can be used to resume sessions from the point of failure.
--Native C# and C++ Client – provides a native C# client library which enables the .Net applications to exchange messages with other JMS clients (native as well as java). It also provides a native C++ runtime library that enables C++ applications to send/receive messages over JMS without installing a JVM.
--New High Availability Features – FioranoMQ HA deployment allows JMS clients to transparently switch over to secondary MQ server on failure of the primary server. The new release offers auto-reconnection of MQ server with the configured external RDBMS servers, making MQ server resilient of intermittent network or machine failures. It also provides transparent auto-revalidation of FioranoMQ administration connections and an option for auto-reconnection of JMS connections with or without client side persistence.
--Enhanced Repeater – supports wildcard (*) based topic subscription links as source of replication. It automatically updates replication links at runtime for newly created topics without reconfiguring or restarting the repeater.
--Multi-Part Message Support – JMS API’s for sending multiple JMS messages wrapped in a single JMS message over Topics and Queues.
