Hutch vs MassTransit: What are the differences?
What is Hutch? Inter-Service Communication with RabbitMQ. Hutch is a Ruby library for enabling asynchronous inter-service communication in a service-oriented architecture, using RabbitMQ.
What is MassTransit? Lightweight message bus for creating distributed applications. MassTransit is free software/open-source .NET-based Enterprise Service Bus software that helps Microsoft developers route messages over MSMQ, RabbitMQ, TIBCO and ActiveMQ service busses, with native support for MSMQ and RabbitMQ.
Hutch and MassTransit can be categorized as "Message Queue" tools.
Some of the features offered by Hutch are:
- A simple way to define consumers (queues are automatically created and bound to the exchange with the appropriate binding keys)
- An executable and CLI for running consumers (akin to rake resque:work)
- Automatic setup of the central exchange
On the other hand, MassTransit provides the following key features:
- Message-based communication
- Reliable
- Scalable
