Java Message Service

The application program interface Java Message Service ( JMS ) makes it possible to send and receive messages in an asynchronous way between applications or component Java. A customer can also receive messages in a synchronous way in the point-to-point means of communication (for that, it must call upon the receive method () which is blocking).

Supported models of publication

JMS allows the exchange of messages between two systems or more. This service supports the point-to-point model publish and subscribe and model.

Publish and subscribe

In the model publish and subscribe, entities fit to receive messages on a certain subject. That which publish the messages and those which receive them do not know.

Point-to-point

For the point-to-point model, the producer publishes the messages in a file (tail) and the customer reads the messages of the file. In this case the producer knows the destination of the messages and station the messages directly in the file of the customer.
