We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"My impression is that it is average in terms of scalability.""AMQ is highly scalable and performs well. It can process a large volume of messages in one second. AMQ and OpenShift are a good combination.""Red Hat AMQ's best feature is its reliability.""The most valuable feature for us is the operator-based automation that is provided by Streams for infrastructure as well as user and topic management. This saves a lot of time and effort on our part to provide infrastructure. For example, the deployment of infrastructure is reduced from approximately a week to a day.""The most valuable feature is stability.""The solution is very lightweight, easy to configure, simple to manage, and robust since it launched.""This product is well adopted on the OpenShift platform. For organizations like ours that use OpenShift for many of our products, this is a good feature."

Plus, there are a lot of support and learning resources available, which help you use Redis efficiently.""The in-memory data makes it fast.""The ability to fetch and save data quickly is valuable.""Redis is a simple, powerful, and fast solution.""The solution's technical support team is good...The solution's initial setup process was straightforward.""The most valuable features of Redis are its ease of use and speed.

Cons
"This product needs better visualization capabilities in general.""There is improvement needed to keep the support libraries updated.""The turnaround of adopting new versions of underlying technologies sometimes is too slow.""Red Hat AMQ's cost could be improved, and it could have better integration.""There are several areas in this solution that need improvement, including clustering multi-nodes and message ordering.""AMQ could be better integrated with Jira and patch management tools.""There are some aspects of the monitoring that could be improved on. There is a tool that is somewhat connected to Kafka called Service Registry. This is a product by Red Hat that I would like to see integrated more tightly."

More Red Hat AMQ Cons →

"There is a lack of documentation on the scalability of the solution.""The initial setup took some time as our technical team needed to familiarize themselves with Redis.""If we use a lot of data, it will eventually cost us a lot.""I would prefer it if there was more information available about Redis. That would make it easier for new beginners. Currently, there is a lack of resources.""It's actually quite expensive.""The only thing is the lack of a GUI application. There was a time when we needed to resolve an issue in production. If we had a GUI, it would have been easier.""In future releases, I would like Redis to provide its users with an option like schema validation. Currently, the solution lacks to offer such functionality.""The development of clusters could improve. Additionally, it would be helpful if it was integrated with Amazon AWS or Google Cloud."
