Due to the uncertainties of the COVID-19 virus, the RabbitMQ Summit team is canceling the Berlin Summit in June 2020. We do still hope that we can proceed with the plans for a summit in November in New York. Check back for updates.

Among other contributions this month, we have resources on using RabbitMQ successfully in a microservices architecture, why you should use messaging in your project with Rabbit and SpringBoot, and many other tips and tricks. So dive in, the water’s fine! And please stay safe, everyone.

This Month in RabbitMQ — February 2020 Recap!

RabbitMQ Summit is coming again! This time, the gathering will be in Berlin on June 9 and the call for proposals (to speak at the event) is open until March 22.

Mark your calendars, brush up on your Deutsch, and buy your tickets for the next chance to immerse yourself in all things RabbitMQ. I’m sure there will be at least a couple of RabbitMQ influencers there, too :)

This Month in RabbitMQ, January 2020 Recap

Introducing TGI RabbitMQ! Inspired by TGI Kubernetes, RabbitMQ engineer, Gerhard Lazu has begun a series of tutorial videos. Tune in at the end of each month for the latest release. In January, Gerhard covered upgrading from 3.7 to 3.8. Star and watch the repository for future episode updates.

Also, be sure to check out the dashboards we’ve published to Grafana. These are a great way to get started with the new Prometheus and Grafana support in 3.8.

This Month in RabbitMQ — December Recap!

Happy new year! 3.8.x has been available for over three months now and we’re seeing a lot of great uptake. This is good news, since the upgrade process is even easier with the addition of feature flags. Keep up the upgrading!

Over at the CloudAMQP blog, you’ll now find videos transcripts of all the RabbitMQ Summit talks. Those are useful if you didn’t make it to the event and want to know what’s in the talk before watching the full 30 minute replay.

Take a look at Observe and Understand RabbitMQ, for example.

We also published a new case study about LAIKA, the animation company that brought you Coraline, The BoxTrolls, and Missing Link. If you are interested in having your use case for RabbitMQ profiled on rabbitmq.com, drop a note in the mailing list or email info@rabbitmq.com.

Last month was a big one for the RabbitMQ community because RabbitMQ Summit happened in London! If you missed the event, or if you were at the event, but missed a session in the other track, all the recordings are now available. Also, be sure to check out our overview blog for an easy-to-digest summary of what’s new in RabbitMQ 3.8.

More new 3.8 features and lessons learned will be covered in an upcoming webinar, by RabbitMQ core team member Gerhard Lazu. Tune in on December 12th!

This Month (and the month before) in RabbitMQ — October and September recap!

We’re a little behind this month! At the beginning of October, we shipped RabbitMQ 3.8. That’s right, folks, RabbitMQ 3.8 is finally out!

Headline features include:

• Quorum Queues: a new replicated queue type with many improvements over classic mirrored queues
• Feature flags allow for mixed-version clusters and simplified upgrades
• Built-in Prometheus and Grafana-based monitoring
• OAuth 2 (JWT token) support for authentication and authorization
• and more

You’ll find some early reviews from folks in the community who have been kicking the tires in the community updates section below. Make sure you are all over the upgrades best practices to avoid potential hazards of upgrading to RabbitMQ 3.8.

RabbitMQ 3.8 has just been released and has some major new features which focus on reliability, operations, and observability.

You can find the new 3.8 release on the GitHub releases page which includes information about what is included in the release as well as various installation assets. See our upgrade guide for more information about upgrading to 3.8.0.

Our team dedicates this release to Joe Armstrong, the creator of Erlang. Joe’s work in the fields of concurrent and distributed systems benefits RabbitMQ to this day. Equally importantly, Joe was a rare example of a brilliant engineer who was also very humble and kind.

Let’s take a quick look at the new features in this release.

Welcome back for another edition of This Month in RabbitMQ! Exciting news is that the first release candidate for RabbitMQ 3.8 is now available!

Be sure to register and snag a spot in one of the training add-on courses.

Welcome back for another edition of This Month in RabbitMQ! Some big news last month was Pivotal announced a forthcoming alpha of Pivotal RabbitMQ for Kubernetes.

You can inquire about the alpha here. As part of that announcement, RabbitMQ was mentioned in coverage in Business Insider, Container Journal, SiliconANGLE, Storage Review, The New Stack, and ZDNet. Pretty cool!
