In the languages besides Java, there is no standard messaging API to fall behind. I'll say something more on Java in a separate message.
If its market share of deployed MOM components that lie strangely unused, its MSMQ.

If market share of paid-for MOM matters, isn't MQSeries effectively a de-facto standard?

But as I've said before, last time I checked the MQSeries API really only worked in threaded clients.

From an MQSeries point of view it seems like IBM have been moving towards a more JMS-like API for their non-java clients, particularly as of version 7.

From a pure layman's perspective on JMS, we've successfully been using JMS clients with qpid for both basic (pub/sub, point to point) and more advanced (LVQ) operations. This would appear to bode well for its flexibility from a messaging point of view.

The main need we've run across for a lower level java api comes from performing administrative functions from code - a standardised admin api would certainly be useful (cf. MQSeries PCF). I'm not sure there would be much benefit from shoehorning this into either JMS or a messaging api though.

Cheers,
Andrew
