About IBM MQ on Cloud
IBM® MQ on Cloud is the gold standard for enterprise messaging, providing security-rich and reliable messaging on-premises and across multiple clouds. Use IBM MQ on Cloud as a managed offering. IBM will handle upgrades, patches and many of the operational management tasks, allowing you to focus on integrations with your applications. Your company uses a mobile app on the cloud to facilitate e-commerce transactions. IBM MQ on Cloud connects the on-premises stock system with the consumer application to give users real-time information about what products are available. Your company hosts its core IT systems in San Francisco, but packages are processed in a depot in London. IBM MQ on Cloud reliably transmits messages from one location to another. It lets the London office encrypt "send" data about every package that needs to be tracked, and lets the San Francisco office receive and process that information more securely. Both offices can trust that information won’t be lost.

IBM MQ
Massive amounts of data move as messages between applications, systems and services at any given time. If an application isn’t ready or if there’s a service interruption, messages and transactions can be lost or duplicated, costing businesses time and money to make things right. IBM has expertly refined IBM MQ over 25 years on the market. With MQ, if a message can’t be delivered immediately, it’s secured in a queue, where it waits until delivery is assured. Where competitors may deliver messages twice or not at all, MQ moves data, including file data, once — and once only. Never lose a message with MQ. IBM MQ is available as software to run in public or private clouds, in containers or on your mainframe. IBM also offers an IBM-managed cloud service (IBM MQ on Cloud) hosted on IBM Cloud or Amazon, and even as a purpose-built Appliance (IBM MQ Appliance) to simplify deployment and maintenance.

Amazon MQ
Amazon MQ is a managed message broker service for Apache ActiveMQ that makes it easy to set up and operate message brokers in the cloud. Message brokers allow different software systems–often using different programming languages, and on different platforms–to communicate and exchange information. Amazon MQ reduces your operational load by managing the provisioning, setup, and maintenance of ActiveMQ, a popular open-source message broker. Connecting your current applications to Amazon MQ is easy because it uses industry-standard APIs and protocols for messaging, including JMS, NMS, AMQP, STOMP, MQTT, and WebSocket. Using standards means that in most cases, there’s no need to rewrite any messaging code when you migrate to AWS. With a few clicks in the Amazon MQ Console, Amazon MQ provisions your broker with support for version upgrades, so you can always use the latest version that Amazon MQ supports. Once you configure your broker, your applications can produce and consume messages.
