MSMQ vs Sandglass: What are the differences?
Developers describe MSMQ 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. On the other hand, Sandglass is detailed as "Distributed, scalable, persistent time-sorted message queue". A distributed, horizontally scalable, persistent, time ordered message queue. Developed to support asynchronous tasks and message scheduling which makes it suitable for usage as a task queue.
MSMQ and Sandglass can be primarily classified as "Message Queue" tools.
