RabbitMQ Cookbook

not what I expected. I may need to get something a bit more deeper.

Ah, a cookbook! The perfect companion to get the most out of that brand new technology, mainly if paired with the official documentation, or some other great text (see below for suggestions). RabbitMQ, an implementation of the AMQP protocol and the de facto standard for building asynchronous distributed systems, has been there for quite some time already, but still many don’t take advantage of having a loosely coupled (asynchronously) distributed application. Among the very few titles available, which confirms how unknown this technology still is to the main public, RabbitMQ Cookbook is the perfect choice for anyone interested in getting the most out of the AMQP protocol, be it an administrator or a developer.As typical of the books dedicated to RabbitMQ, the recipes are split into two categories, targeting in part administrators, but mostly developers. While it is possible to build applications on top of RabbitMQ through third party middlewares, such as Celery, the authors focus on those that get their hand dirty and deal directly with the broker, programatically.While as just stated most of the text targets developers, the best of the book are those few chapters dedicated to administrators. Three chapters in particular, 6, 7 and 10, stand out for the impressive quality of their content and the great value given to the readers. In these recipes the authors focus on clustering and high availability. Many pages are dedicated to replication. I have particularly enjoyed the examples that clearly show to the reader, step by step, what happens when we properly create a cluster and queues get replicated. And what happens what we do it the wrong way!Chapter 10 is fully dedicated to Rabbit and the cloud. More specifically, the authors focus on how to deploy it on Amazon AWS and get EC2 instances up and running, working in synergy, in a cluster, through a VPC.Overall a very good book for anyone interested in working with RabbitMQ. Precious for developers, it is a little gem for administrators and DevOps managing auto-deploying clusters. Highly recommended.As usual, you can find more reviews on my personal blog: http://books.lostinmalloc.com Feel free to pass by and share your thoughts!Suggested readings:RabbitMQ Essentials: a great introduction to both AMQP protocol and its RabbitMQ implementation.

Good examples and explanation.

In the interests of full disclosure - I am a technical reviewer of this book. That being said, this book is an excellent resource for anyone looking to use RabbitMQ (or any other AMQP server for that matter...) for queuing/integration. I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing this book and learn some new RabbitMQ tricks in the process. The format uses a clean cookbook of recipe description, how to implement the recipe, and how the recipe works. It makes finding a solution to a queuing challenge a quick and easy process.This book comprises over 265 pages and 70 recipes for a myriad of integration solutions. Sigismondo and Gabriele did a great job of showing code examples for Java, C#, Python as well as others languages. In addition to the examples, they also show how to properly manage a RabbitMQ server and deploy it to the cloud.Here is a brief table of contents:1. Working with AMQP2. Going beyond the AMQP Standard3. Managing RabbitMQ4. Mixing Different Technologies5. Using RabbitMQ in Web Applications6. Developing Scalable Applications7. Developing High-Availability Applications8. Performance Tuning for RabbitMQ9. Extending RabbitMQ Functionality10. RabbitMQ on AWS11. AMQP and Cloud Computing - RabbitMQ on PAAS12. Managing RabbitMQ Error ConditionsOne of my favorite recipes in the book is for auto scaling RabbitMQ servers on AWS -- it is a formula you can use for not only RabbitMQ but other EC2 instances on AWS.If you want a flexible/scalable backbone for your Enterprise application (or future Enterprise application) -- RabbitMQ is a great option -- and this book is a great head start for that option.

I throughly enjoyed reading the book .It is a very well written and nicely explained cookbookIt contains some very good recipes about rabbitmq and queuing.first two chapters describes the working with Rabbitmq along with AMQP specification(0-9-1 and future release)third chapter is all about Rabbitmq configurations and playing with rabbitmqctl and management plugin .I love the recipes in fourth chapter about the integration of Rabbitmq with mobile platforms and some other technologies.Its good to know stuff like MQTT and mosquito .chapter 5 is all about web apps and here i feel authors could have put some more useful use cases .Recipes for high availability and clustering are very well explaindOverall its a very good book for a Rabbitmq user.

If I had to describe this book in one word it would be, for sure, useful.This books provides different recipes from the most basic stuff like installing RabbitMQ to complex configurations such as High-Availability mirrored queues (and many more!). All the recipes are clear and straightforward which makes developer's life easier.I recommend it to all RabbitMQ developers out there.

I bought this book looking for improving my RabbitMQ skills. This goal has not been reached unfortunately, at least not with this book.The book by itself is not too bad, but it is really of little help if you already know a bit of how RabbitMQ works. I was truly expecting more real life scenarios with more examples than the ones provided on the book. Moreover it is really tedious to follow the chapters of the book, they all look pretty much the same thing (Getting Ready, How to do it, How it works...). I know it is a cookbook, but still it is not engaging at all.Last but not least, all the examples are written in Java. Nothing against Java but given the relation of size/price of this book, I would like to see the same examples in another modern languages such as Javascript, Go, Python and Elixir. I am sure the author knows well his stuff, it shouldn't be so difficult to include these alternatives and more people could benefit from it.

I was really excited when I saw the title of the book because one of my favorite books is 'Perl Cookbook'. I was disappointed because most of the explanations and the real code is available online and this is making the 'paper book' just a reference of internet links.On the other hand the part about MQTT was really interesting and that is the reason I give that three star review.

Questo libro spiega in maniera semplice ed immediata tutto ciò che c'è da sapere su RabbitMQ.Gli innumerevoli esempi riescono a far capire in maniera ineccepibile il reale funzionamento di questo fantastico Framework e attraverso queste dimostrazioni pratiche da una visione completa sull'argomento.Il miglior libro in circolazione su RabbitMQ
