Chapter 1. Introduction and patterns

In this chapter we will discuss some of the common MQSeries programming flow patterns. We will introduce one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, request/reply, send-and-forget, and publish/subscribe patterns.

It is essential at this point that you have read and fully understand the MQSeries book, An Introduction to Messaging and Queuing, GC33-0805, which fully discusses all the MQSeries fundamentals we will be referring to throughout this book.
