Anypoint MQ is MuleSoft's proprietary message broker, priced per API call. The open-source world has battle-tested alternatives that handle orders of magnitude more traffic for free.
Proprietary cloud messaging service. Billed per API request on top of your existing MuleSoft licensing. Limited to Mule applications, no direct access from non-Mule systems without additional work.
Pick the right tool for the job. RabbitMQ for traditional messaging, Kafka for event streaming, ActiveMQ for JMS compatibility. All open source, all proven at massive scale.
The most widely deployed open-source message broker. Supports AMQP, MQTT, and STOMP. Excellent for request-reply patterns, work queues, and pub/sub. Built-in management UI.
Distributed event streaming platform. Handles millions of events per second with built-in partitioning, replication, and exactly-once semantics. The standard for event-driven architectures.
Full JMS 2.0 support with ActiveMQ Artemis. If your Mule flows depend on JMS, this is the most direct migration path. Supports queues, topics, and durable subscriptions.
Unlike Anypoint MQ, these brokers speak standard protocols. Any application in any language can produce and consume messages — not just Mule apps.
We'll migrate your Anypoint MQ queues to an open-source broker that scales without billing surprises.
