How to Use JMS with PHP

Added 31 Jul 2008

JMS (Java Messaging Service) is an interface implemented by most J2EE containers in order to provide point-to-point queuing and topic-based (publish/subscribe) functionality. JMS is frequently used by enterprise and back-end applications for distributed communication and collaboration. PHP is a powerful scripting language popular for use with Apache's CGI facility. Although efforts are being made to develop PHP as a back-end scripting language, its use is still very much confined to front-end applications. Combining the strengths of PHP--easy and fast web development, and compatibility with many types of databases--with those of JMS, which is the standard for communication with back-end enterprise applications, creates a powerful and easy-to-use tool for both Java and PHP developers.
