Overview

Product Information on Amazon MQ

Updated 13th October 2025

What is Amazon MQ?

Amazon MQ is a managed message broker software that facilitates the integration and communication between distributed applications by supporting industry-standard messaging protocols such as Apache ActiveMQ and RabbitMQ. The software enables applications to exchange information through messages without building custom integrations, supporting features such as message queuing, topic-based publish-subscribe, and durable subscriptions. Amazon MQ addresses the business requirement for reliable message delivery, message persistence, and decoupling of components in enterprise and cloud-based environments. It helps organizations migrate existing messaging workloads to a managed environment with operational responsibilities such as provisioning, patching, and failure detection handled by the service, allowing customers to focus on application development rather than infrastructure management.

Amazon MQ Pricing

Amazon MQ software uses a pay-as-you-go pricing model where users are charged based on the broker instance type, storage, and data transfer. Costs vary depending on the chosen broker engine, instance size, and time used, with separate charges for storage and additional features such as high availability or advanced monitoring.
