Jboss fuse karaf - active mq

I am new to Jboss fuse karaf(jboss-fuse-6.3) and activeMQ. Currently I am accessing activeMq on localhost:61616, my question is what is more suitable way of using activeMQ - on same server(localhost:port) or can I use activeMQ hosted on remote server, which method is more fast and safe ?

Thanks.

If you are using it for dev purpose, then the most suitable way is to use the embedded one that comes with Fuse out of the box because it requires less maintenance.

However if you are asking about AMQ in production environment then most likely it should be highly available and able to survive crashes without data losses. In this case you need to think about some failover machanism, so the safer option is to use an external ActiveMQ broker or even better - a cluster of AMQ brokers. In this case the speed of message delivery and consumption depends on the network connectivity as well.

Also if we talk about speed you should consider where AMQ should store it's messages especially the undelivered ones. By default it comes with a file based DB KahaDB which can be changed. In both cases it's fast enough.

Wish you luck with the ESB!
