Running a message queue in Docker

The web application now publishes messages, and a handler listens for them, so the final component I need is a message queue to connect the two. Queues need the same level of availability as the rest of the solution, so they're good candidates for running in Docker containers. In a distributed solution deployed on many servers, the queue can be clustered across multiple containers for performance and redundancy.

Your choice of messaging technology depends on the features you need, but there are plenty of options with .NET client librariesMicrosoft Message Queue (MSMQ) is the native Windows queue, RabbitMQ is a popular open source queue that supports durable messaging, and nats is an open source in-memory queue that is hugely performant.

Beginning DevOps with Docker

Beginning DevOps with Docker

Making sure that your application runs across different systems as intended is quickly becoming a standard development requirement. With Docker, you can ensure that what you build will behave the way you expect it to, regardless of where it's deployed. By guiding you through Docker from start to finish (from installation, to the Docker Registry, all the way through to working with Docker Swarms), we'll equip you with the skills you need to migrate your workflow to Docker with complete confidence.
