Overall Satisfaction with IBM Event Streams (formerly Message Hub)
Message Hub is used to persist and transfer the operations domain data. It's being used to replay the data from a certain point in the past. The pub/sub model allows us to empower clients to choose when to start reading the data. It's been reliable and scalable.
- Replay capability
- Message persistence
- High throughput
- Monitoring capabilities
- Visibility into topics
- Dashboard for visualization
- Avoided maintenance overhead that comes with point-to-point messaging
- High-thruput when compared to MQ
- Ease of setup leading to quicker turnarounds and deliveries
We've evaluated Confluent Kafka and the price point of Message Hub is excellent. The support has been great. Message Hub provides the same number of features that Apache Kafka provides which has been tremendous.
