Description-en: OpenStack Queueing as a Service - common files
Zaqar is a multi-tenant cloud messaging service for web developers. It
combines the ideas pioneered by Amazon's SQS product with additional semantics
to support event broadcasting.
.
The service features a fully RESTful API, which developers can use to send
messages between various components of their SaaS and mobile applications, by
using a variety of communication patterns. Underlying this API is an efficient
messaging engine designed with scalability and security in mind.
.
Other OpenStack components can integrate with Zaqar to surface events to end
users and to communicate with guest agents that run in the "over-cloud" layer.
Cloud operators can leverage Zaqar to provide equivalents of SQS and SNS to
their customers.
.
By installing python-zaqarclient you get programmatic access to the Zaqar v1.0
API library. Plus, it installs a plugin to python-openstackclient that allows
you to perform simple queue operations.
.
This package contains common files and configuration that are
needed by all the daemon packages of Zaqar.
