I understand there are three (3) brokers available to do pub/sub stuff on MQ:
- MA0C (free Pub/Sub broker)
- Integrator broker
- Event broker

We are using the MA0C broker for now, but have concerns about (a) its performance, and (b) I understand that it goes out of service Dec 2004.

My inclination is that MA0C probably works fine, but isn't necessarily performant for a commercial environment. Plus, we probably would get some things with the Integrator Broker that could be useful for message routing.

Any advice?

There are quite a few broker related performance SupportPacs at:

http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/support/supportpacs/perfreppacs.html

You might want to check them out. As far as which one to go with, I guess it depends. If all you are doing is publish/subscribe (ie, no message transformation), you can get away with the Event Broker product over the Integrator Broker product. The Event broker also has the optimized IP node for performance, and the WBI Event Broker has multi-cast support. You can also publish/subscribe to different protocols (eg, SCADA, WMQe, MQ) with the Broker products. You can't get this with MA0C.

All,

I thought IBM merged / included SupportPac MA0C with WMQ v5.3?

That was why the SupportPac was going out of service? Someone from IBM want to verfiy this.

The web page gives WebSphere MQ V5.3 as one of the possible pre-reqs. Plus they have a section on how to install on 5.3. So I don't think it can be part of 5.3.

Cheers,
