Kestrel vs MSMQ: What are the differences?

Developers describe Kestrel as "Simple, distributed message queue system". Kestrel is based on Blaine Cook's "starling" simple, distributed message queue, with added features and bulletproofing, as well as the scalability offered by actors and the JVM. On the other hand, MSMQ is detailed as "A technology for asynchronous messaging". This technology enables applications running at different times to communicate across heterogeneous networks and systems that may be temporarily offline. Applications send messages to queues and read messages from queues.

Kestrel and MSMQ belong to "Message Queue" category of the tech stack.

Kestrel is an open source tool with 2.8K GitHub stars and 326 GitHub forks. Here's a link to Kestrel's open source repository on GitHub.
