We use SonicMQ (sonicsoftware.com) for XML Messaging. SonicMQ uses JMS.

Subject: [xml-dev] ( Slightly off topic ) JMS and other messaging


I am a big fan of messaging since it seems to hide entire
implementations from the calling routine.  I believe this is a
competitor to soap.  

Anyway. Does any one here use XML and messaging?  

Also there seems to be people that are scared to use messaging with the
following criticism:

1) extra layer 
2) slow
3) what if the messaging company goes out of business.

for 1 I actually think it is a plus many times

2) It may slow something down but at the same time may help when trying
to scale something since it facilitates throwing hardware at a
bottleneck

3) I think with some careful engineering one can create a very light
layer that hides all of the messaging implementation.  If one would need
to swap out the messaging API then it should be just a matter of
changing one small layer of code. 

For example.  Create your own message like objects and then in a layer
translate these objects into a message. 

I would like to hear your thoughts on messaging ... also messaging vs.
soap.
