Elements of WebSphere MQ Everyplace

The fundamental elements of the WebSphere MQ Everyplace programming model are messages, queues, and queue managers. WebSphere MQ Everyplace messages contain application-defined content. Messages are stored in a queue and can be moved across a WebSphere MQ Everyplace network. You can address messages to a target queue by specifying the target queue manager and queue name. Applications place messages on queues through a put operation and typically retrieve them through a get operation. Queues can either be local or remote and are managed by queue managers. The registry stores configuration data.
