# AMQP

Frends offers seamless integration with the [Advanced Message Queuing Protocol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Message_Queuing_Protocol) (AMQP 1.0), enabling you to effortlessly connect and automate data flows between your systems and AMQP-based applications.

Frends has both tasks for sending AMQP messages and an AMQP trigger for listening for incoming messages.

Typical products supporting AMQP 1.0 are

* Apache ActiveMQ
* RabbitMQ
* Azure Service Bus
* [IBM MQ](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/ibm-mq/9.3?topic=applications-amqp-10-support)

## Use cases
