Announcing preview of Java Message Service 2.0 over AMQP on Azure Service B

In keeping with that vision, we’re excited to announce preview support for Java Message Service (JMS) 2.0 over AMQP in Azure Service Bus Premium tier. With this, we empower customers to seamlessly lift and shift their Java and Spring workloads to Azure while also helping them modernize their application stack with best in class enterprise messaging in the cloud.

Here is a list of JMS features that are supported today: To connect an existing JMS based application with Azure Service Bus, simply add the Azure Service Bus JMS Maven package or the Azure Service Bus starter for Spring boot to the application’s pom.xml and add the Azure Service Bus connection string to the configuration parameters.

By leveraging Azure Service Bus JMS support, customers can now avoid the overhead of procuring licenses, managing an enterprise messaging broker on their own IaaS Compute, simplify cost management with a fixed price per messaging unit, and by leveraging automatic scale up and down provisioning to address variability in workloads.

Get started today by provisioning a Service Bus namespace with JMS features and migrating your existing Java and Spring applications from Active MQ to Service Bus.
