<p class="MsoNormal">Hello:<br>
<br>
We are trying to decide on what OS to target our brokers on. Our consumers (at least initially) will be written in .NET so the initial preference is to have the brokers sit side-by-side with the consumers. We’ll be interested in taking advantage of HA capabilities
as well as high throughput. I know Windows and Linux are both supported, but I’m just curious if there’s a general preference one way or the other that might help lead us down a good path. We’re building a centralized logging system so resiliency and throughput
are pretty important. Obviously we’ll need to do our own benchmarking down the road and adjust based on those findings, but we need to start somewhere.<o:p></o:p></p>
