Background
We already had one run into messaging using Active MQ. This turned out to be remarkable, except for the fact that Active MQ mysteriously dies every few days without any clue as to what went wrong. We probably averaged around 1-2 million messages per day. We ended up working out a solution because we need something that will not fall every night when we are in bed.
