Message-oriented middleware (MOM) allows applications to communicate and exchange data by sending and receiving messages. With advantages of asynchronous and multi-point transmission, loosely coupling between participants etc. MOM is widely recognized as the most promising solution for communication between heterogeneous systems. This paper firstly reviews current research in MOM, then introduces main features and architecture of MOM, further elaborates on a few main functional modules, including message, queue, transmission mode and security, and finally carries out a comparative analysis of several commonly used MOM products. According to high-throughput and highly reliable data service needs for IoT and smart traffic etc. In this context, this paper analyzes opportunities and challenges to MOM when facing with new requirements and adapting to a more complicated environment.
