Is there any light weight Java Message Queue for Backend process communication?

I am developing a application , in which backend will be in java. In backend there are many processes. For communication I require message queue. I have searched for message queue in java , I got JMS. But as i know that is for Web applications and that will increase overhead in our project. so is there any basic light weight java message queue?

JMS is a standard and not a concrete implementation. Investigating the offer on JMS implementations is your best route. ActiveMQ is a well-known implementation. It is industrial-strength, but it is not of necessity heavyweight. There may be other offerings as well.

Any additional component will add some overhead, the question is how much. On production we use HornetQ, and when properly configured it can be fast. Or even faster

There are also many alternatives, among those considered 'light':
