"Excellent K8s Native Message Broker"

What do you like best?

KubeMQ is a fantastic replacement of services like AWS SQS, SNS, Lambda, API Gateway when you are looking to have portability between cloud environments/on-premise deployments. It provides an excellent, rich feature set that provides K8s native applications with a wide range of event-driven options available to within the cluster.

Ease-of-use in deployment - they make it really quite simple to get up and running for a variety of use-cases. With new tools like Bridges and Targets, they are even extending far more advanced multi-cloud/multi-deployment options that allow developers/engineers a wide range of possibilities for event-driven systems.

Their support - I've hopped on a Slack thread with them - and within a few minutes we have resolved an issue. They are very wiling to add support for different Cloud environments and help overcome setup/maintenance issues with you in real-time. This is absolutely key and they are doing a fantastic job thus far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

Early stage. Things are changing quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

KubeMQ allows me to have the benefits of event-driven systems directly within my cluster networking. At First Resonance, we are building a product that needs to run in several different environments, Normal Cloud, GovCloud, and on-premise, potentially more.

I don't have the option to use Cloud Native application services like Google Pub/Sub, AWS SQS, SNS, Lambda for core features of our application due to the necessity of portability.

KubeMQ has provided me with all of those features and more. It allows me to have an extensible event-driven, redundant system that I can rely on. We have delivered another feature-set of our application by using KubeMQ's message broker service and wouldn't have been able to deliver it without a system like KubeMQ.

"KubeMQ is a great tool to join together number of different microservices."

What do you like best?

KubeMQ supports a number of popular communication patterns (Pub/Sub, sending events, event sourcing, even CQRS commands and queries). It has client libraries for programming languages I use (C# and Go) and the ability to use REST API. It also provides a dashboard to monitor activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

No tracing support in the C# client library. Also, I was not able to connect the dashboard in my Kubernetes cluster (though locally it worked fine). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I use KubeMQ for communication between microservices. With KubeMQ I am able to have some microservices working as BFF (Backend For Frontend. BFF microservices provide API for my applications, they take care of user authorization and authentication and other stuff like this. On the other hand, some services are left fully internal, they do a real job and react and commands, queries, and events from BFF services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've already recommended it to few engineers in other company."

What do you like best?

lightweight 30 mb binary(especially comparing to Kafka), easy to install, feat well with service mesh( in my case it was linkerd), grpc interface from the box Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

Release cycle in helm repository. You should take more attention to versioning in this app.

Problem: 1) new version was come up in helm repo, old was isn't available. I had this case few mounts ago where I've pinned to specific Chart version in requirements.

2) tag latest in helm source code. https://github.com/kubemq-io/charts/blob/master/kubemq/crds/operator.yaml#L19 , it definitely can be considered not as best practices Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you are a "green project" it can be a good option for you compared to Kafka. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

lightweight 30 mb binary => I've worked with the review app to install it from scratch. it is not possible to come up with a fully separated env with Kafka as fast as in kubemq.

I've reviewed it from my perspective of ops engineer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a limited variety of connectors and bridges available today for KubeMQ, but I found their technical support very attentive and ready to address our proprietary design needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you develop or migrate to Kubernetes environment, it is highly recommended to consider KubeMQ. As it supports all messaging patterns such as Queue, Stream, Pub/Sub and RPC it is most likely to address your use cases, all by a single solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"KubeMQ is very easy to install and implement and has many capabilities"

What do you like best?

I like best that it provides so many messaging patterns in one product, which is extremely useful for our use case. It was also great to have such support from the company, they answered all our questions and were very helpful in the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

There is no KubeMQ community yet, but i believe there will be soon :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We were looking for a messaging platform that would allow us to use both pub-sub and queue, with high availability guaranteed and low latency. We also use Kubernetes and KubeMQ integrates into it very easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An easy-to-use microservice solution"

What do you like best?

KubeMQ allows me to use message queues, PubSub, and RPC all in one microservice, this means that I don't have to train my team on 3 different services I can just train them how to use this singular microservice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

Their NodeJS SDKs code is quite hard to follow and doesn't have support for TypeScript, although this can be easily bridged as KubeMQ just uses GRPC and Rest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

KubeMQ allows me to utilize different types of communication between apps that I wouldn't be able to use otherwise because the hosting of microservices would be too much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
