Dear all,

I suppose AMS still does not support pubsub model?
If all we are concerned is to protect / encrypt data AT REST, what would be a workaround?

Thank you!

Instead of trying to publish the unencrypted data, publish the encrypted data.
i.e. first put with AMS to QA
retrieve using ALIAS QA and publish
subscription on QB
retrieve with AMS from ALIAS QB...

Have fun

Encrypt the disc at a hardware or OS level.

Still true. Why don't you have a look at MQ Message Encryption (MQME). MQME supports both point-to-point and Pub/Sub topology for message encryption/decryption (i.e. data at rest).

Thanks all,

looking at the "limitations" which says ....

Quote "It is possible for an application to publish to a topic via an alias queue definition that is protected by a policy, it is also possible for a subscribing application to get messages from a policy protected queue. It is not possible to assign a policy directly to a topic string, policies can only be assigned to queue definitions."

What does it mean by "publish to a topic via an alias queue"? Is that actually what fjb_saper was suggesting? ...... seems this is my workaround with pub/sub if confidentiality is the AMS option I use anyway?

Here's an example of that:-

Thanks Morag!

So the publishing and subscribing application does NOT even need to be aware of the change to AMS (confidentiality option, at least)!! Great!!

Thanks all!

In general applications are not aware of the change to AMS. In this case - taking a publishing application and changing it to put to a queue, and taking a subscribing application and changing it to get from a queue probably means that they are aware?

Anyway, hopefully you have all the building blocks you need now. If you have any further questions, you know where to ask them.

Cheers,
Morag
