Dunno if anyone will know this one, but - I am looking at peer-to-peer FOSS message queuing implementations to use with Oracle on Linux (RH) - e.g., Manta Ray, ActiveMQ. All of the (rare) literature I find references AS rather than connecting to the database itself (e.g., via JDBC). Why is it that one can use AQ without the app server but no other product can?

(before anyone asks "Why not use AQ?", it is because we are doing this with Standard Edition servers)

I wonder if a better question might be, "Why can't Oracle speak to a JMS interface?"

If anyone can shed light on this I would be grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
