Broker architecture

ActiveMQ brokers can be created as single-instance brokers or active/standby brokers. For both deployment modes, Amazon MQ provides high durability by storing its data redundantly.

Note

Amazon MQ uses Apache KahaDB as its data store. Other data stores, such as JDBC and LevelDB, aren't supported.

You can access your brokers by using any programming language that ActiveMQ supports and by enabling TLS explicitly for the following protocols:

• AMQP

• MQTT

• MQTT over WebSocket

• OpenWire

• STOMP

• STOMP over WebSocket
