Deploying MSMQ

The successful use of MSMQ-based applications depends on the successful installation of MSMQ dependent clients, independent clients, servers, and your MSMQ-based applications. The planned, staged, careful installation and testing of these is called deployment.

The first two topics are useful in planing any MSMQ enterprise, no matter how small. The last topic, Designing the Rollout Process, is the approach we suggest for mission-critical applications and cautious administrators.

This section of the Administrator's Guide can be used as a step-by-step guide to planning your MSMQ enterprise and designing your rollout process.

This section contains:

Planning Your Enterprise: Describes how to plan MSMQ in your enterprise based on network topology, network protocols, and other factors.
Designing and Building MSMQ-based Applications: See the Microsoft Message Queue Server Programmer's Guide for samples of MSMQ-based applications.
Designing the Rollout Process: Describes the steps involved with deploying MSMQ in a medium-to-large-scale corporate environment.
