@ClemensV @jbonofre And to everyone who came to Haarlem or watched online: thank you. Safe travels home.

Closing notes in the Grote Zaal. Two days, one stage, every flavour of broker, and no vendor war. Thank you for being here, and for watching from wherever you are 💜 #MQSummit

Closing panel in the Main Room: the future of the open source messaging ecosystem, with @mattrpav  (HYTE, ActiveMQ PMC) and @jbonofre, who's involved in around twenty Apache projects. Bring your hardest question. #MQSummit #OpenSource

Kafka, but the stakes are the lights staying on across Norway. Herman Jakobsen (Statnett) on controlling the Norwegian power grid in real time. Main Room.

#MQSummit #Kafka

Last coffee break of MQ Summit 2026. Then: Kafka controlling the Norwegian power grid in real time (Main Room, 15:40) and a panel on the future of open source messaging at 16:15, also in the Main Room.

The real cost of a messaging platform rarely shows up on the invoice. Scott Corrigan (meshIQ) is in the Main Room with 'The Hidden Operational Cost of Messaging Platforms'.

#MQSummit #Kafka

A very Dutch case study for a conference in Haarlem: Jeroen van Disseldorp (Axual) and Guy Hagemans (AppyThings) on taking PostNL from API polling to event streaming. Main Room, now.

#MQSummit #Kafka

In Labs (PHIL Café): @ClemensV (Microsoft) with 'Introducing JSON Structure'. Schemas for your messages, hands-on, in person only.

#MQSummit #JSON

JMS, meet RabbitMQ, by way of AMQP 1.0. David Ansari, RabbitMQ core tech lead, is in the Main Room with 'Bringing JMS to RabbitMQ: AMQP 1.0 and Cross-Broker Interoperability'.

#MQSummit #RabbitMQ

Last Lab of MQ Summit 2026: @ClemensV (Microsoft) introducing JSON Structure, 13:30 in PHIL Café. If you've ever fought with a message schema, bring a laptop. In person only.

#MQSummit #JSON

Day 2 of MQ Summit, and one more thank you to everyone who made these two days possible: @awscloud, @synadia, @EMQTech, @CloudAMQP, @IBM, @valkey_io, @solacedotcom, Seventh State, HYTE, meshIQ and @ahrefs. #MQSummit

Lunch 🍽️ At 13:30: David Ansari on JMS and AMQP 1.0 in RabbitMQ (Main Room) and @ClemensV introducing JSON Structure in Labs (PHIL Café). Then PostNL on moving from API polling to event streaming.

#MQSummit

"Harvest now, decrypt later" means messages captured today could be read once quantum hardware catches up. Rob Parker (IBM MQ) is in the Main Room with 'The Quantum Threat Is Here... Is Your Messaging Ready?'
