SpringSource Acquires RabbitMQ Cloud Messaging Technology
On April 13, 2010, SpringSource announced that VMware has acquired Rabbit Technologies Ltd., an open source software company based in the United Kingdom. SpringSource will add the RabbitMQ open messaging system into its suite of technologies that reduce the complexity associated with development, deployment and management of enterprise applications.
RabbitMQ is a complete and highly reliable, open source, enterprise messaging system that is based on the open standard, AMQP. It offers exceptional reliability, availability and scalability along with throughput and latency performance that is predictable and consistent. Its compact and lean architecture makes it ideal for use in cloud computing environments where developers are designing tomorrow’s distributed, loosely coupled, highly scalable advanced applications.
