Abstract

Message-oriented middleware (MOM) is increasingly used as enabling technology for modern event-driven applications typically based on publish/subscribe (pub/sub) communication [1]. Many of these applications are designed for maximum scalability and flexibility and as such, they pose some serious performance issues for the underlying pub/sub middleware. Additionally, software designers face a new challenge: designing message-based communication flows which rely on asynchronous decoupled communication patterns. In order to develop good designs, system designers have to understand quality of service aspects and their performance costs. We believe that benchmarks are very helpful tools to analyse these aspects.
