Overview
ActiveMQ Classic on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS provides a fully configured, production-ready message broker environment for enterprise messaging on AWS.
Apache ActiveMQ Classic is one of the most popular open-source message brokers, supporting multiple messaging protocols including OpenWire, STOMP, AMQP, and MQTT. It implements the JMS (Java Message Service) specification and is widely used for asynchronous messaging, event-driven architectures, and enterprise integration patterns.
This AMI is built on a minimal installation of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS (Resolute), updated to the latest security patches. ActiveMQ Classic is pre-installed with OpenJDK 17 and configured as a systemd service that starts automatically on boot. It is designed for developers, architects, and DevOps teams who need a reliable message broker without spending time on installation and configuration.
Key components included:
- Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.2.5 (message broker)
- OpenJDK 17 (Java runtime)
- Web management console (port 8161)
- Multi-protocol support: OpenWire (61616), STOMP (61613), AMQP (5672), MQTT (1883)
The system is security hardened following best practices. SSH access uses key pair authentication only. ActiveMQ runs as a dedicated system user. The web console password is changed from the default. Automatic security updates are enabled by default.
This AMI is suitable for enterprise messaging, microservices communication, event-driven architectures, IoT data ingestion, job queues, and any use case requiring reliable asynchronous message delivery.
Highlights
- Multi-protocol support - OpenWire, STOMP, AMQP, and MQTT protocols pre-configured. Connect from Java, Python, Node.js, .NET, IoT devices, and more.
- Production ready - Pre-installed with OpenJDK 17, configured as systemd service with auto-start, web management console included. Deploy messaging infrastructure in minutes.
- Enterprise grade - Apache ActiveMQ Classic is battle-tested in production environments worldwide. JMS compliant with support for queues, topics, and virtual destinations.
