What it is

CloudAMQP is a managed cloud service for LavinMQ and RabbitMQ messaging clusters. It automates cluster setup, operation, and scaling, with a control panel for monitoring and alarms sent through email, webhooks, or external services. Plans support AMQP, AMQPS, HTTPS, STOMP, and MQTT; dedicated plans also support WEB-STOMP. The service runs on Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, DigitalOcean, and Scaleway. It supports configurable delivery guarantees, per-queue ordering, dead-letter queues, and messages up to 128 MB. RabbitMQ clusters use Quorum Queues to replicate messages across nodes and reconnect clients after a node failure. SSL/TLS protects data in transit, with network isolation and VPC options on some clouds. CloudAMQP states that it is SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA compliant. Free plans are available; paid plans start at $19/mo. Customers cannot access nodes via SSH.
