<para>OpenStack uses a <glossterm>message broker</glossterm> to coordinate
|
|
operations and status information among services. The message broker
|
|
service typically runs on the controller node. OpenStack supports several
|
|
message brokers including <application>RabbitMQ</application>,
|
|
<application>Qpid</application>, and <application>ZeroMQ</application>.
|
|
However, most distributions that package OpenStack support a particular
|
|
message broker. This guide covers the RabbitMQ message broker which is
|
|
supported by each distribution. If you prefer to implement a
|
|
different message broker, consult the documentation associated
|
|
with it.</para>
