Open Stack

I don't know AMQP very well. At the protocol level, are Exchanges, Queues, etc things? Are fanout, durability, and other things required or optional to be implemented?

Thanks,
Kevin

AMQP 1.0 is just a protocol for asynchronously transferring messages
between processes. Supporting it doesn't require that zaqar provide any
functionality that it doesn't want to. It is simply another protocol for
accessing exactly the same service.
