Summary

This chapter explored the architectural and design promises of messaging, including how AMQP and RabbitMQ deliver on these promises. In addition, the reason why the taxi agency Complete Car decided to introduce RabbitMQ in its software landscape was discovered. Finally, a RabbitMQ broker was installed and a user and various vhosts were configured for it. Armed with a basic understanding of message queues and RabbitMQ, the next chapter builds on these concepts and explores the architecture behind the Complete Car taxi application.

It's time to hit the ground running and write some code. Turn to the next chapter to start building a RabbitMQ-powered application!
