CloudAMQP
CloudAMQP is a managed cloud hosting platform for LavinMQ and RabbitMQ messaging clusters.
What CloudAMQP is
CloudAMQP is a managed cloud hosting platform for LavinMQ and RabbitMQ messaging clusters. It automates setup, operation, and scaling, and its control panel provides monitoring and custom alarms delivered through email, webhooks, or external services. All plans support AMQP, AMQPS, HTTPS, STOMP, and MQTT; dedicated plans also support WEB-STOMP. The service is available on Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, DigitalOcean, and Scaleway. It supports messages up to 128 MB, configurable delivery guarantees, per-queue ordering, and dead-letter queues. RabbitMQ clusters use Quorum Queues to replicate messages across nodes and reconnect clients after a node failure. CloudAMQP states that it is SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA compliant, and uses SSL/TLS for data in transit. Customers cannot access CloudAMQP nodes through SSH.
