IBM MQ, formerly WebSphere MQ, is a secure messaging solution that rapidly transports message data between applications, systems and services. It runs as software, on a high specification appliance, in multiple clouds and on the mainframe.
Connect
IBM MQ is about connecting applications, services and systems, whether on premises, in clouds, or both. IBM MQ enables you to connect applications written today with those written years ago. It can even facilitate sending file data as messages over the MQ network.
Protect
IBM MQ protects messages on the move with TLS. It also protects at rest, but goes one step further than those who only protect the disk – which is still vulnerable to those with disk access – by encrypting the messages themselves. This helps you to protect your business and your customers.
Simplify
IBM MQ provides a single messaging backbone that simplifies application development by removing the need for close coupling, and building transactionality and certain security features in.
