Difference between Broker and Universal Messaging

[Eunmi_Kim]

What is the main difference between Broker and Universal Messaging?
Also, I want to know about the differences and methods for UM’s transmission system (ex.Queue, Topic, Data Group …). In particular, with a focus on Data Group.

Hey Rankesh / Jonathan,

I’m just confused about the terminology used in the document shared by Jonathan.

NUMWI &
NUMWS

NUMWF &
NUMTF

what do they mean.

Thanks,
Arun Cholleti.

Hi Arun,

Those are different product codes of UM licenses…

NUMWI - With this you can expect similar behaviour as in Broker and it doesn’t support Active-Active clustering. If users are using Broker then can get a free swap to this UM license which means no extra cost involved in migrating to UM.

NUMWS - Apart from the features provided by NUMWI, this also supports Active-Active clustering.

NUMWF - Fully featured license. This supports additional features like AMQP, MQTT, JavaScript and mobile support. Additionally it also supports Data Groups, web proxies, schedulers etc…

NUMTF- Fully featured Terracotta license. This should be used if we are using UM as standalone and not being used for messaging within webMethods products.

Hope it helps !!

Ashok
