The recent public announcement of the broader MRG product suite marks a significant milestone for Red Hat’s realtime development team. This announcement formalized Red Hat’s product commitment to realtime — a significant step toward the upcoming product availability. This is extremely gratifying for the development team — to see the fruits of several years of effort come that much closer to imminently being deployed by demanding customers.
It has been a long road in getting the bulk of the realtime feature set successfully incorporated upstream. This wasn’t easy due to the strict upstream kernel acceptance criteria. A tough crowd to please, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. The high bar for design and code review, while it can appreciably lengthen the process, ultimately yields a superior implementation. It took a lot of patience and community-development skills to pull off the leadership of the realtime initiative. We’d rather have things done right than hastily.

Looking at the stories that have been written about Red Hat Enterprise MRG since our announcement on Tuesday, we think that it is worth pointing out a few additional distinctions about the offering. Some writeups have focused on MRG as a replacement for other vendor’s messaging products, such as Tibco and IBM WebSphereMQ. At Red Hat, we believe in freedom and choice and intend to continue to tune and support other messaging products and our partners’ messaging platforms–even if MRG overlaps in some use cases. To this end, MRG realtime has been developed with customers running many other vendors’ products (including all of the key messaging providers). The better we can make all of a customers’ products perform, the more our customers win–and we win too.

Contribution by Carl Trieloff, Senior Consulting Software Engineer at Red Hat
Today, the Red Hat crew announced a new offering called “Red Hat Enterprise MRG.” What is MRG? It is an interesting set of technologies (Messaging, Realtime and Grid) which, when combined, we believe will provide unprecedented value, power and flexibility to our customers. We have received feedback from our customers stating that in the same way they where able to get better performance using less hardware and at less cost when moving to Red Hat Enterprise Linux from other operating systems, they expect the same will happen when using MRG. This provides the next big building block in Red Hat’s Linux Automation story. More on this later. First, lets look at some of the pieces.

Red Hat has shown that open source is one of the best ways to bring customer-driven innovation and leadership to the market. Today’s announcement of Red Hat Enterprise MRG provides a perfect example of this in many respects.
Red Hat Enterprise MRG includes Red Hat’s implementation of AMQP-based ( Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) enterprise messaging. Both the MRG Messaging implementation and AMQP itself highlight Red Hat’s leadership and customer-driven innovation.
