Hi...
I've a query. Can JMS do all the jobs which can be done by MQ? I mean, what are the points which make MQ important? I've to give a presentation and need to promote MQ as an ESB and Messaging technology. What are the points which make it better than other ESBs and JMS?
Please help! |

JMS is an API, not a product.
To use the JMS API you need a JMS transport provider such as WMQ. |

There are many JMS Transport providers... how is MQ better than those ones? |

This is a different question than the one you orginally asked.
It's also a question best answered with reference to the sales documentation. Why is a Ford better than a Toyota? Is a Ford better than a Toyota in all circumstances? In any circumstances? Is a Honda better than them both?
If you want some soundbites, WMQ is:
- from IBM
- proven
- scaleable
- supported
- part of a larger product suite _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

WMQ has a very wide range of platforms supported.
Most large companies have esoteric platforms like z/OS, or OS/400 somewhere and you want an integration product to cover all of them. |

But Ford is endorsed and supported by the USA government.
