RabbitMQ is an open source application that enables robust messaging for applications. It implements the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP), the emerging standard for high performance enterprise messaging. The RabbitMQ server is a robust and scalable implementation of an AMQP broker.

The LoadMaster is used to load balance the RabbitMQ workload. The LoadMaster offers advanced Layer 4 and Layer 7 server load balancing, SSL Acceleration and a multitude of other advanced Application Delivery Controller (ADC) features. The LoadMaster intelligently and efficiently distributes user traffic among the application servers so that users get the best experience possible. Note that the Progress Kemp template supports up to version 3.6 of RabbitMQ.
