acitvemq是遵循JMS规范的，面向消息的中间件（MOM）。出自apache旗下，无论在高可用，还是性能等方面，都是表现优异的。

The goal of ActiveMQ is to provide standards-based, message-oriented application

this spec. These additional features including items such as JMX management of
the broker, master/slave capability, message grouping, total ordering of messages,
consumer priority for location affinity, retroactive consumer feature for receiving
old messages upon subscription activation, handling for slow consumer situations,
virtual destinations to lower the number of required connections to the broker,
sophisticated message persistence, support for cursoring to handle large messages,
support for message transformation, support for the EIP patterns via Apache
Camel, mirrored queues for easier monitoring and much, much more.
