Hi.

My project manager has TOLD me that we are using IBM's MQSeries for 1.
Transformation from say tag + value to comma separated.
2. routing from one process to another on both the Internet and the
internet.

Why don't we just use MQ's and sockets from unix with c++?
He thinks that this is too complicated but I think MQSeries is way too
complicated.

I can get 1 or 2 people who believe that we should be using sockets
etc with Java or C++ but they have no authority of which technology
should be used.

We have a lot of messages going through our system and I have
experimented with a large work load to find Unix sockets better.

Can someone offer me some advice on which is best?

Thanks
