Preface

The RabbitMQ Cookbook covers RabbitMQ and the corresponding AMQP protocol.

Even the less-experienced programmer can find a lot of information that is useful to start developing messaging applications using RabbitMQ, especially in the first few chapters.

However, in order to fully appreciate some of the chapters of the book, the reader should also know the basic concepts about web and cloud applications.

The book is full of examples that show you how to use RabbitMQ in very disparate scenarios, in different technologies, right from single hosts to geographically replicated high-availability clusters. Mostly everyone working with these technologies will find a lot of useful information within this book.
