Progress Software's Java messaging server unleashed

Progress Software Corporation announces the results of performance benchmarks that demonstrate that its Progress SonicMQ significantly outperforms FioranoMQ and is on average 96% faster on queue tests and 43% faster on publish/subscribe tests.

The results echo those published last spring, which demonstrated that SonicMQ performed significantly faster than IBM's MQSeries message-queuing software in rigorous tests.

This extensive benchmark suite includes 28 individual tests that measure performance for a variety of messaging models (publish/subscribe, queueing), messaging topologies (many-many, many-one, one-many), number of connections, size of message, sustained performance for long duration and overall system throughput and stability. Each test reflects real-world business-to-business, supply chain management, enterprise application integration and other Internet-centric applications scenarios.

The full test results and a white paper detailing how organizations can obtain optimum throughput for a particular environment, can be downloaded at http://www.progress.com/sonicmq/whitepapers/fiorano.pdf
