I'm trying to achieve some kind of a load balancing in our project. I don't think that master/slave can solve that problem. It merely is a recovery mechanism, which is good but not good enough for me.
Just to clarify the reason I'm posting this message. I read on the the doc page that ActiveMQ supports distributed queues and the way to achieve that is to use a network of brokers. Is this still true? Because I don't see messages flow between brokers even when I subscribe to a queue on a broker that does not currently have any messages. May be I'm just misinterpreting the documentation. http://www.activemq.org/site/how-do-distributed-queues-work.html John Heitmann wrote: > >> It sounds like you may want to try out the master/slave feature >> instead if you care about both 0 message loss during failure and that >> a message must be consumed once and only once. > > John > > On Dec 28, 2006, at 7:32 AM, activemqer wrote: > >> >> Hi, >> I'm trying to cluster two brokers on two separate machines.
