Is ActiveMQ unreliable?
- by user122991
Hello,
We have been using ActiveMQ 5.2 in our distributed enterprise application for about 3 months. During that time, we have experienced debilitating failures at least twice weekly. In particular, we see:
1) Topic publisher has its connection arbitrarily closed and experiences EOF on attempt to publish. Note well that this issue is not a function of some timeout. It does not correlate reliably with any inactivity.
2) Queue listeners never receive message. Message simply sits on Queue.
2) is much rarer (hardly ever) than 1). In both cases, the failures are highly intermittent-- they cannot be reliably reproduced through any testing usage pattern. Also, there are no errors or warning in the AMQ logs.
Have others experienced similar problems? Is there an opinion that some other JMS provider is more reliable?
thanks,
Joe
