Validating your migration to Amazon MQ

Focus mode
Validating your migration to Amazon MQ - Amazon MQ

Learn how to test and validate the availbability of your brokers using the following procedure.

  1. Subscribe to Q1 on AMQ_APPLE and Q2 on AMQ_ORANGE. Using a Network Bridge, create a queue replica on both sides.

    Note

    The process for external subscribers is the same as subscribing to local queues.

    The following example shows the AMQ_ORANGE broker with consumers in us-east-1 and AMQ_APPLE with consumers in us-east-2 : ActiveMQ interface showing two queues with 1 consumer each and no pending messages. ActiveMQ web console showing two queues with 1 consumer each and no pending messages.

  2. Both queues are now available to both brokers, producers can send messages to any broker, and subscribers can receive messages from any broker. For JMS 1.1 compliant applications, change the endpoint URL to an ActiveMQ failover URL.

Note
