## What it is
Apache RocketMQ Spring Integration is a Spring Boot starter that lets Java developers quickly integrate RocketMQ messaging into Spring applications. It provides annotations and templates for sending and consuming messages, including transactional, ordered, batched, and scheduled messaging.

## Use cases
- send and consume RocketMQ messages in a Spring Boot app
- send transactional messages with Spring
- consume ordered messages in a Spring service
- send batched or scheduled messages from Java
- filter messages with tag or SQL92 expressions
- implement request-reply messaging in Spring Boot

## When to choose
- you use Spring Boot and RocketMQ and want idiomatic annotations and auto-configuration
- you need transactional, ordered, or scheduled messaging in a Java Spring app
- you want a maintained official Apache integration instead of hand-rolled RocketMQ clients

## When to avoid
- your project does not use Spring or Spring Boot
- you use Kafka, RabbitMQ, or another message broker
- you need a non-JVM language client

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: message-queue, middleware, sdk
- domain: backend, developer-tools, microservices
- platform: jvm, cross-platform
- tags: rocketmq, spring-boot-starter, messaging, apache, event-driven, spring-boot
