What is Message Queue (MQ)?

Message Queue (MQ) is a form of asynchronous communication that allows different parts of a system to communicate and exchange data. Instead of directly calling each other, applications send messages to the queue, which stores them until the receiving application is ready to process them. This decoupling enhances reliability, scalability, and flexibility in distributed systems. Common uses include background job processing, inter-service communication in microservices architectures, and ensuring message delivery even if the receiver is temporarily unavailable.
