Enterprise messaging & queuing
Never lose a message. Secure, reliable, exactly-once delivery between applications, systems and clouds — so every transaction arrives once, and only once.
MQ is the trusted backbone that moves payments, orders and events between the systems your business can't afford to have fail.
IBM MQ connects applications dynamically, securely and reliably, so businesses can build message-driven and event-driven applications at scale. It decouples systems through queues, coordinates transactions across resources and delivers each message exactly once — even when networks, servers or whole regions fail.
MQ runs on premises, in containers and in any cloud, from distributed servers to IBM z/OS. As an IBM Silver Business Partner and integration specialist, NetCreativeMind designs, upgrades, secures and supports MQ estates — alongside App Connect, DataPower and Cloud Pak for Integration.
Reliability, security and real-time coordination sit at the heart of these industries — and MQ is built for exactly that.
Get the message across — securely, reliably and at any scale, wherever your applications run.
MQ coordinates multiple resources in a single transaction, decouples applications through local queues and manages communication across networks — so data stays consistent and every message is delivered exactly once, never duplicated or lost.
Replicated queue managers and cross-region replication for rapid failover and disaster recovery.
Encryption and integrity checks for data in flight and at rest, helping meet compliance needs.
Move large files securely over the same reliable messaging network, across platforms.
Supported source and sink connectors give exactly-once, two-way flow between queues and Kafka topics.
A conversational interface that helps administrators diagnose and resolve issues faster.
MQ Advanced, MQ Appliance, MQ for z/OS or MQ SaaS — on premises, in containers or any cloud.
Applications hand messages to MQ and get on with their work — MQ makes sure they arrive.
An application puts a message on a queue — no need for the receiver to be online.
Queue managers store and route messages securely across networks, clouds and platforms.
Transactions, encryption and replication keep every message safe through any failure.
The receiving system gets each message exactly once — in the right order, when it's ready.
The difference between hoping a call gets through and knowing every message arrives.
A representative selection — MQ runs from the mainframe to Kubernetes and supports a wide range of APIs and protocols.

“Managed services”Quick answers about IBM MQ and how we help teams run it.
IBM MQ is enterprise messaging middleware. Applications exchange information by placing messages on queues, and MQ guarantees secure, exactly-once delivery — even if a system, network or data centre fails.
MQ is built for assured, transactional delivery of individual messages such as payments and orders. Kafka is designed for streaming and replaying large volumes of events. Many organisations use both, and IBM's MQ source and sink connectors move data between them with exactly-once delivery.
MQ Advanced adds capabilities such as Native HA, cross-region replication, managed file transfer and advanced message security. We help you choose the right edition — and only pay for what you need.
Yes. MQ runs on premises, on Red Hat OpenShift and Kubernetes, in public and private clouds, as a physical appliance, on IBM z/OS, and as a SaaS service.
Messages are stored persistently and moved within transactions, so they survive restarts and network failures. Native HA keeps replicas of each queue manager ready to take over, and cross-region replication protects against the loss of a whole site.
Yes. MQ is a core part of our IBM integration practice. We handle health checks, version upgrades, migrations to containers and 24x7 managed support for existing queue managers.
