Why run RabbitMQ on Varity

  • Messages on persistent storage

    Durable queues and broker state live on a 10 GB volume, included in the $29.60 monthly maximum

  • Your credentials from the start

    RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER and RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS are required to deploy, so the default guest login is never what protects it

  • Open source

    The upstream RabbitMQ server, MPL-2.0 licensed, managed through its own console
