  • Data Queues vs. MQSeries

    January 14, 2009 Timothy Prickett Morgan

    Does anyone have any knowledge or references related to the difference in performance between doing a put to a journaled data queue vs. doing an open and a put (no connect) to an MQSeries queue?

    –James

    In MQSeries, opens are expensive, so if you keep the queue open and do multiple puts, you will get very good performance. Using a data queue, you will get better performance as long as there are not too many entries in the data queue. If the data queue overflows (no telling where this might occur, but I have seen it around 100 messages), then both gets and puts to the data queue get very slow. This does not happen with MQSeries.

    –Mark Murphy

    The question and answer given above is from the IT Jungle Web Forums. Feel free to add more to the discussion.

    In V4R5, IBM added two parameters to the Create Data Queue (CRTDTAQ) command to help keep data queues as small as possible. The SIZE parameter allows you to specify the initial and maximum number of entries to be placed on a queue. The AUTORCL parameter allows the system to reclaim storage as needed. See Manage the storage used by a data queue for more information.

    –Ted

    [Webinar] Synchronous IBM i and non-IBM i Deployments
    April 13 at 12 p.m. ET

    Do you need to automate and synchronize deployments across ALL your environments and applications?

    Many backend IBM i applications have off-platform components, such as an API layer, or Web front-end. To ensure your application stays reliable, artifacts must be deployed securely and in-sync.

    In our Webinar, learn how to orchestrate all your deployments, multi-platform and multi-cloud, using DROPS by ARCAD Software:

    – One single console to deploy across multiple endpoints – IBM i, Windows, Linux, IBM z, on prem or cloud

    – Real-time visibility of application status, from anywhere

    – Deployment plans and one-click-deploy

    – Rollback on error

    Simplify and secure your application delivery.
