Hi all,

Is anyone currently using Redis for message queuing?  Looking at it as a replacement (along with Jedis) 
for ActiveMQ currently, but wanted to find out whether anyone was using this in production currently.

Many thanks,
Jon.

one of the major use cases for redis is as a message queue.
I'm using something homebrew I wrote, but a very popular MQ written with redis is resque:

(it has almost as much github watchers as redis itself!)

There's an in-built MQ host in my ServiceStack C# Redis Client that we're using in Production in Careers 2.0 back office services (used for sending emails, virus scanning, converting to PDF's etc):

A good stackoverflow article that talks about the persistence with
pub / sub

Just to help clarify for later readers: that article talks about
persistent connections for pub/sub, not to be confused with
disk-persistence for data structures.
