AMQP

Definitions

1. Advanced Message Queuing Protocol — an open standard for message-oriented middleware that defines message format, routing, queuing, and delivery guarantees. RabbitMQ is the most popular AMQP broker.

   In plain English: A standardized way for applications to send messages to each other through a broker that guarantees delivery.

   Example: "We use AMQP with RabbitMQ for reliable task distribution — messages survive broker restarts and get retried on failure."
