The HTTP interface is Marconi specific. AMQP is a standard protocol adopted by other messaging services, meaning an application written to use AMQP could be run against Marconi even if that was not the original (or only) target.<br>

I'm not arguing that Marconi should provide support for AMQP, but if it did I can see that being useful to some set of users.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Exactly that's what we are looking for with this addition.</div>
