ActiveMQ vs pg-amqp-bridge: What are the differences?
What is ActiveMQ? A message broker written in Java together with a full JMS client. Apache ActiveMQ is fast, supports many Cross Language Clients and Protocols, comes with easy to use Enterprise Integration Patterns and many advanced features while fully supporting JMS 1.1 and J2EE 1.4. Apache ActiveMQ is released under the Apache 2.0 License.
What is pg-amqp-bridge? Send Messages from PostgreSQL to RabbitMQ. This tool enables a decoupled architecture, think sending emails when a user signs up. Instead of having explicit code in your signup function that does the work (and slows down your response), you just have to worry about inserting the row into the database.
ActiveMQ and pg-amqp-bridge belong to "Message Queue" category of the tech stack.
ActiveMQ and pg-amqp-bridge are both open source tools. ActiveMQ with 1.5K GitHub stars and 1.05K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than pg-amqp-bridge with 251 GitHub stars and 14 GitHub forks.
