In their own words
CloudAMQP
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.
RabbitMQ
RabbitMQ is an open source messaging and streaming broker for application communication, including distributed microservices, real-time data, and IoT. Publishers can route messages to one or more consumers using routing, filtering, streaming, and federation. Message acknowledgements and replication across a cluster support delivery reliability, and delivery guarantees are configurable. Supported protocols include AMQP 0-9-1, AMQP 1.0, MQTT, STOMP, RabbitMQ Streams, HTTP, and WebSocket, including browser communication over WebSocket. Client libraries are available for Java, .NET/C#, Erlang, and other languages; the project also offers a community Docker image and Kubernetes operators. RabbitMQ can run in cloud or on-premises environments, on local machines and physical or virtual hardware, and in containers. Linux, Windows, and macOS are supported; z/OS, most mainframes, and systems with less than 100 MB of RAM are not. The free, self-managed Open Source RabbitMQ Server is offered under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 with best-effort community support. VMware Tanzu RabbitMQ is a commercial offering with 24/7 support and enterprise features; pricing is by contact.
