May be of interest: The RFP for the OOI Federated Messaging System was released last week

[Matthew Arrott <marrott@novgp.com>]

All,

I believe a number of you aware the the program I manage, Ocean Observatory Initiative Cyberinfrastructure, has been working towards releasing an RFP for a federated messaging infrastructure that requires AMQP 1.0 and federation capabilities. The RFP was finally approved late last month and posted for bid last week. If interested the RFP is available at:

or

Many thanks to everyone for getting AMQP 1.0 to this point that we could realistically require it as core capability of the RFP.

Matthew
