MQ as web-backend middleware

843830Oct 11 2005 — edited Oct 17 2005

Hello everybody in the java enterprise arena!

I got a question regarding the usability of MQs as front-backend middleware.

Somebody posed the idea of using MQs for all communication between a webapplication and the backend implementation. In this scenario the webapplication has no business logic or database logic implemented. Thus the web app post a request message on the queues for every data detail or transaction it needs.

What are the general pros/cons of this setup? Would it be feasable? Scalable? etc. or is the asynchronous nature of JMS inadequate for this use?

Every idea is more then welcome! Regards,
