IBM MQ · Event Streams · ACE
Guaranteed delivery, from z/OS to Kafka.
Mission-critical estates still run on IBM MQ. We implement, upgrade, and modernize queue managers, and we extend that reliability into Event Streams and API Connect when the architecture needs streaming or governed APIs.
IBM MQ as the backbone
IBM MQ provides reliable, asynchronous messaging that decouples applications and delivers even when a consumer is down. We implement high-availability clustering, disaster recovery, and MQ on OpenShift or Kubernetes — including MQ for z/OS so CICS and IMS can talk to distributed systems without a science project.
Architectures we run
We size, harden, and operate the pattern your SLAs actually require.
- Point-to-point queues with persistent, guaranteed delivery
- Pub/sub topics for fan-out
- Request-reply over MQ for RPC-style integrations
- Kafka-based streaming with IBM Event Streams
- EDI and B2B via ACE (X12, EDIFACT, AS2)
- MQ as a Service on IBM Cloud
Modernization without a big-bang cutover
Most MQ estates cannot be replaced; they can be upgraded, containerized, and connected to Event Streams and API Connect. We plan version modernization, fix packs, and phased cutovers with rollback at each step.
Modernize the messaging layer with a team that still respects MQ.
