IBM MQ for file transfer [closed]

Question

We are facing a choice to use IBM MQ over SFTP for file transfer. I've heard advantages of such approach, but I've never see anyone actually using it for a large files.

So main question: how well IMB MQ can handle transfer of large files (up to 100 MB)? Is it stable? It's from mainframe to UNIX server, if it does matter.

Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

I've used MQ with files up to 8GB in size, without incident. You have to allocate enough space for MQ to manage them, but it works.
