We are using ActiveMQ 5.2 as our implementation of choice and we picked it a while ago. It performs well enough for our use right now. Since its been a while, I was wondering what other Java Message Service implementations are in use and why? Surely there are more than a few.

JMS API is the implementation to handle the producer-consumer problem. JMS API allows us to create, send, receive, and read messages. Some o the benefits of using JMS are – loosely coupled application, reliability, and asynchronous communication.
After you create a Connection object, you use it to create a Session: Session session = connection. createSession(false, Session. AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
The Java Message Service (JMS) API is a messaging standard that allows application components based on the Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) to create, send, receive, and read messages. It enables distributed communication that is loosely coupled, reliable, and asynchronous.
Before delving into JMS, consider AMQP as well - might be a new standard. JMS providers I worked with (in varying degrees):
TIBCO EMS - very quick and robust, good API support, Java friendly, native C API exists. Best commercial choice I've used.
Websphere MQ (and its JMS implementation) - so, so. Pub/sub not exactly quick, many configurations options and choices are 'strange' and overly complex from the long history of that product. Just look at the amount of documentation...
Solace JMS - very high throughput (the JMS broker is built in hardware !), good choices of connecting protocols (MQTT, AMQP, XML over http as admin protocols)
Fiorano MQ - used to be agressive in marketing but lost a lot of market share, maturity concerns
Sonic MQ - solid product, also supports a C API
Active MQ - if you want to go with an open-source product (unexpensive support, great community, limited add-on products, limited enterprise features) this is probably your best choice. Works out of the box and is the backbone of several tools like Apache Camel, for example.
