Publishers, subscribers, and brokers communicate by using queues. Configuration and monitoring of these queues can be performed by whatever technique is currently in use for WebSphere MQ, whether supplied by WebSphere MQ or available from third parties.

Before we can use WebSphere MQ Publish/Subscribe we need to do the following things to set up your broker:

  1. If necessary, define the queues that the broker needs to use.

  2. Authorize applications to use these queues.

  3. Review the default settings of the broker parameters in the queue manager initialization file (qm.ini) or review them using WebSphere MQ Explorer.

For information about managing your brokers when they have been set up, see Controlling the broker.

How to find out about publishers and subscribers registered with brokers, and how to write applications to manage a network of brokers is explained in System programming.
