What is the difference between message queues and dblinks?
Thanks and Regards,

I may not be exactly right in this definition on queuing.
In simple words,
It is an oracle functionality that helps for interprocess communication between different modules/applications/webinterfaces/databases etc ( like publish and subscribe). A google search or browse through documentation should help more precisely.

A dblink is just a link to another oracle database.

-- this will query the database connected to CURRENTLY.
sql> select * from emp;
-- this will query the table emp residing in a remote database
-- or other database.
-- myremotedb is the name of databaselink ( which precrated to connect to a particular user in remotedb and is hardcoded with the password)
-- Search in this forum/google/docs for more examples.

sql> select * from emp@myremotedb;
