ActiveMQ gives you this capability via the Pure, Shared File System, or JDBC Master/Slave configurations.
These configurations allow you to set up a network of brokers that is comprised of 'master' brokers, where each master is backed up by one or more passive 'slave' brokers. If a master were to fail, one of the slaves would jump into action and take over for the master. Your clients (producers, consumers) can be configured to failover to the slave if-and-when the master were to fail. Brokers can balance the message load across other brokers that have appropriate consumers and consumers can be clustered so that you can further balance the load across multiple consumers.
