Introduction

The value of enterprise messaging

IBM Cloud Pak® for Integration uses the enterprise messaging capability of IBM MQ to allow businesses to ensure that every order, payment and customer interaction counts. Messages between applications are delivered reliably once-and-only-once, and applications are decoupled to enable rapid response to sudden traffic increases or system outages.
 
IBM Cloud Pak for Integration can be deployed to Red Hat® OpenShift® on public clouds or private data centers to ensure connectivity of apps and data wherever they reside. Tap into the value of existing data as it flows to gain insights or react to events as they happen, while robust security mechanisms keep critical business and customer data safe.
