This presentation is from the Pivotal Cloud Foundry meetup in Columbus, Ohio, on February 23, 2017. ------------ Learn the advantages of enabling communications between applications using open APIs and protocols like AMQP, JMS, MQTT, Qpid, Paho, REST and WebSockets. Mark Spielman demonstrates how easily you can enable real-time communications between microservices with the new Solace Messaging Tile for Pivotal Cloud Foundry. We’ll then discuss the architecture and code that makes it all possible. Join us to learn how you can improve the way your applications exchange information both within Pivotal Cloud Foundry and across clouds.

o Application Messaging
‐ I.e. The exchange of information between applications using a
messaging server where the data is routed based on a destination
(often a topic or queue).
o Common Messaging Models:
‐ Publish/subscribe
‐ Point-to-point or message queueing
‐ Others: Request / Reply, stream processing, event driven, …
o Not any of the following:
‐ Text/SMS messaging, Instant messaging, Social chat, Etc…
What messaging am I talking about?

Why Messaging?
Infrastructure for reliable data delivery – because it is difficult!
Simple Producer / Consumer Scalability
Simple, Scalable Connectivity
Simple High Availability

Benefits of messaging…
o Enables deferred
execution through
pub/sub
o Promotes loose coupling
between services
o Provides burst absorption
via queuing
o Simplifies services –
publish events once!
o Easily add new services like
big data by connecting and
subscribing
