Rapidly Building Event Driven and Streaming Applications with RabbitMQ

In this live-coding session we explore a variety of event processing and streaming solutions built with RabbitMQ. We will show how Spring Cloud Streams and RabbitMQ provide abstractions for developers to build event driven apps. You will learn tools and techniques to solve...

Running RabbitMQ at Scale

CloudAMQP provides RabbitMQ clusters as a service, but what happens behind the scenes? It all runs on RabbitMQ servers that provide various functionality in setting up, configuring, monitoring and updating our RabbitMQ service. In this talk we'll go into how AMQP and RabbitMQ...

Lifting the lid on Quorum Queues

Quorum Queues are a promising new RabbitMQ feature but how do they work under the hood? What were the design decisions and trade-offs that had to be made and what even is Raft? In this session Karl aims to explain how Quorum Queues came about and provide a high-level overview...

RabbitMQ is a multi-protocol messaging broker, which, on a vanilla installation supports AMQP-0.9-1. Through its plugin architecture, RabbitMQ may also be configured for other protocols such as EMQX and MQTT. Which of these two are better? Join me in this talk as I answer these...

Observe and understand RabbitMQ

RabbitMQ exposes metrics and healthchecks that answer all questions. Future RabbitMQ versions will make it easy to visualise and understand what happens under the hood. Join me to learn about the future of RabbitMQ observability.

Practical advice for the care and feeding of RabbitMQ

After 10 years of heavy use of RabbitMQ in production, common problems, patterns, and solutions have emerged. In this talk we will cover architecture, configuration and operational management, monitoring, and maybe a disaster story or two.

Uncommon monitoring and analytics for RabbitMQ

In order to detect anomalies and prevent runtime issues that can compromise the delivery of business services that depend on RabbitMQ, effective monitoring, alerting and analytics tools can make a big difference. But are all of the available tools alike? Attend this session to...
