JMS queue in weblogic server 12c

Let’s have a look on the JMS resources with definition:

JMS Server

A JMS server acts as a management container for resources within JMS modules. Some of its responsibilities include the maintenance of persistence and state of messages and subscribers. A JMS server is required in order to create a JMS module.

JMS Module

A JMS module is a definition which contains JMS resources such as queues, topics, connection factory etc. A JMS module is required in order to create a JMS queue.

Subdeployment

JMS modules are targeted to one or more weblogic instances or a cluster. Resources within a JMS module, such as queues and topics are also targeted to a JMS server or weblogic server instances. A subdeployment is a grouping of targets. It is also known as advanced targeting.

Connection Factory

A connection factory is a resource that enables JMS clients to create connections to JMS destinations.

JMS Queue

A JMS queue is a point-to-point destination type. A message is written to a specific queue or received from a specific queue.

In this example, we will create the following resources:

JMS Server with name TestJMSServer
JMS Module with name TestModule
Subdeployment with name TestSubDeployment
Connection Factory with name TestConnectionFactory
JMS Queue with name TestQueue
