Amazon MQ now supports cross-region data replication for ActiveMQ brokers
Amazon MQ now supports cross-region data replication for ActiveMQ brokers on Amazon MQ. This feature allows you to build regionally resilient messaging applications using continuous asynchronous message replication from a primary broker to a replica broker in a standby AWS region with a few clicks, eliminating the need to use third-party tools or custom code to replicate data between regions.
Amazon MQ now supports cross-region data replication for ActiveMQ brokers on Amazon MQ. This feature allows you to build regionally resilient messaging applications using continuous asynchronous message replication from a primary broker to a replica broker in a standby AWS region with a few clicks, eliminating the need to use third-party tools or custom code to replicate data between regions.
Cross-region data replication enables messages to be replicated across ActiveMQ brokers in different regions with robust monitoring metrics. In case of a regional failure, you can trigger a failover quickly and confidently from the primary to standby region, allowing you to resume operations.
Cross-region data replication pricing consists of cross-region data replication charges, plus broker instance and storage charges for both brokers. Data transfer between the primary AWS Region and a secondary AWS Region is billed based on the data transfer pricing of the applicable AWS Regions. See Amazon MQ pricing for pricing of replication, instances, storage and data transfer.
You can enable cross-region data replication between ActiveMQ brokers on Amazon MQ in all the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N.Virginia), US West (Oregon), and US West (N.California). To learn more, see cross-region data replication for ActiveMQ.
