Amazon MQ single-instance broker

A single-instance broker is comprised of one broker in one Availability Zone. The broker communicates with your application and with an Amazon EBS or Amazon EFS storage volume. Amazon EFS storage volumes are designed to provide the highest level of durability and availability by storing data redundantly across multiple Availability Zones (AZs). Amazon EBS provides block level storage optimized for low-latency and high throughput. For more information about storage options, see Storage.
