Hello,

Just a clarification on page 63. The author describes a situation where you can use a message queue task to "distribute files across your network" (end of paragraph 1). Why would one use this task instead of the FTP task?

Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy.

There are several reasons: FTP does not grant the delivery whereas messaging systems (TIBCO, IBM MQSeries, etc) usually grant you the delivery of the message. In addition, messaging systems are asynchronous and provide you some additional features like return receipt, request/reply functionality, pub/sub, etc.

You can browse the link below for an interesting thread on the topic:
