    RabbitMQ

    Three pages, meant to be read in order but usable on their own:

    Page What it covers
    Overview What RabbitMQ is and where it fits, the AMQP model, queue types, delivery guarantees, node internals, clustering, security, performance and monitoring.
    Operations Installing natively, configuration, users and policies, cluster management, upgrades, troubleshooting playbooks and a CLI reference, plus legacy notes for 3.x and Pacemaker-managed (OpenStack) clusters.
    Lab A runnable Docker Compose lab: single node and three-node cluster, Python exercises for every major pattern, Prometheus/Grafana alerting and PerfTest benchmarks.

    Everything here targets RabbitMQ 4.3, the current release series as of October 2026. A lot of RabbitMQ material online still describes 3.x behaviour that no longer exists; the overview's version notes list the differences that matter.
