Just sharing some messaging tools I have been working with recently.
The first one is this performance test tool: msg-perf-tool. There’s no secret here: you run the tool and it does its best to bring your messaging system to its knees (though this may not be the correct way how to test it … check the testing tips on the Github page). For now it supports only AMQP, but Stomp and MQTT support is on the way. You can find rpms for RHEL/Centos (6 and 7) and Fedora (22, 23 and 24) for i686 and x86_64 on my Copr profile here.
The second one is a web page that can display the performance data stored on an ElasticSearch database and present it in a beautiful way. I call it messaging performance center. Here’s how it looks like:
Some bits are still in progress, but it’s functional.
Lastly, there’s litestomp. A C implementation of the Simple (or Streaming) Text Oriented Messaging Protocol. It was built on top of what-seems-to-be the now defunct libstomp project. There’s a couple of bugfixes, a simpler and higher level API for ease of use. Still a work in progress, but you can download the current rpms for RHEL/Centos (6 and 7) and Fedora (22, 23 and 24) for i686 and x86_64 from my Copr project page on this link.
