The official ZeroMQ (ØMQ) Guide, a comprehensive tutorial book by Pieter Hintjens explaining ZeroMQ messaging patterns from basics to advanced distributed architecture. It includes 750+ runnable code examples translated into 28 programming languages, with this repository hosting the PHP examples.
Use cases
- learn ZeroMQ from scratch
- understand pub-sub and request-reply messaging patterns
- find ZeroMQ code examples in my language
- build reliable message brokers with ZeroMQ
- learn distributed systems messaging patterns
- understand ZeroMQ socket types like DEALER and ROUTER
- design fault-tolerant messaging architectures
When to choose
- you are learning ZeroMQ or designing message-based distributed systems
- you want language-agnostic explanations of messaging patterns with runnable examples
- you need proven patterns for reliability, load balancing, and pub-sub over ZeroMQ
When to avoid
- you need a ZeroMQ library or runtime itself rather than documentation
- you want a tutorial for a different messaging system like Kafka or RabbitMQ
- you need actively updated content for the newest ZeroMQ versions, as the text targets 3.2
