In this guide, we will walk you through the process of running RabbitMQ inside a Docker container. RabbitMQ is an open-source message broker software that facilitates communication between services, ensuring that messages are sent and received reliably. Docker, a popular containerization platform, allows you to easily set up RabbitMQ in an isolated environment with minimal setup.

RabbitMQ is a powerful and flexible messaging broker that enables communication between services in a decoupled manner. In a microservices architecture, RabbitMQ plays a vital role in ensuring that different services can interact and exchange data asynchronously. NestJS, a progressive Node.js framework, provides excellent support for building scalable microservices, including RabbitMQ integration.

In this article, we’ll walk through how to integrate RabbitMQ in a NestJS application, including both sending and receiving messages. We’ll also explore a real-world example where RabbitMQ is used to process tasks asynchronously.

Message queues enable asynchronous communication in distributed systems, helping applications to scale, improve fault tolerance, and decouple components. Below is a comprehensive comparison of RabbitMQ, Kafka, ActiveMQ, IBM MQ, and NATS, along with their use cases, advantages, disadvantages, and guidance on when to choose each.
