Apache RocketMQ vs RSMQ: What are the differences?
Apache RocketMQ: Open source distributed messaging and streaming data platform. Apache RocketMQ is a distributed messaging and streaming platform with low latency, high performance and reliability, trillion-level capacity and flexible scalability; RSMQ: A lightweight message queue for Node.js that requires no dedicated queue server. Just a Redis server. tl;dr: If you run a Redis server and currently use Amazon SQS or a similar message queue you might as well use this fast little replacement. Using a shared Redis server multiple Node.js processes can send / receive messages.
Apache RocketMQ and RSMQ can be categorized as "Message Queue" tools.
Apache RocketMQ and RSMQ are both open source tools. It seems that Apache RocketMQ with 8.25K GitHub stars and 4.23K forks on GitHub has more adoption than RSMQ with 1.07K GitHub stars and 78 GitHub forks.
