Overview
According to Google, Google Cloud Pub/Sub is “an asynchronous messaging service that decouples services that produce events from services that process events”. The middleware helps organizations in multiple ways, including:
- Ability to store and deliver messages between different applications
- Offering consistency and high availability
- Scalability
- Lower cost option via Pub/Sub Lite
Products like Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, and SocketIO are mentioned as competitors, but Cloud Pub/Sub has been noted as easy to use and includes advanced features and automation.
