Spring JMS with different JMS Providers

[bianconeri]

Hi all,

I am new to Spring JMS. I am with WebSphere Application Server 6.0 (WAS 6.0). It provides with a few of JMS Providers. My Java web project has been successfully configured to use Spring Framework. My question is if there is any particular JMS Provider (say, ActiveMQ) that Spring JMS is exclusively tied to?

Apart from that, of the two providers by WAS 6.0, namely Default Messaging and WebSphere MQ, which is recommended for use with Spring JMS if either of them is supported?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Spring JMS aims to provide a simplified library for working with the JMS API. Therefore, any JMS implementation should work fine with Spring JMS in a consistent way. The decision of which provider you use should probably be based on other factors.

Hope that helps.
