  • 1.  IBM MQ Deployment on AWS EKS or ECS Fargate

    Posted Thu March 27, 2025 12:08 PM

    Hi team, I want to migrate my MQ from AWS EC2 using EFS to AWS EKS/ECS on Fargate, using EFS as shared storage.

    Current environment:

    • Active-passive, 2 instance
    • AWS EC2 m5.xlarge
    • EFS shared storage
    • CPU utlilzation less than 30%

    To be environment:

    • Containerised multi-instance MQ instead of MQ with Native HA
    • AWS EKS/ECS Fargate
    • Use EFS shared storage

    Is the above set up supported?
    Any issues?
    How much will the throughput be in the setup?

    IBM MQ is certainly supported in AWS EKS. You can use the IBM provided Helm charts for the same.
