Apache ActiveMQ 5.3.0 has an official SPECjms2007® result, thanks to some great work by Kai Sachs from the Databases and Distributed Systems Group at the Technical University Darmstadt in Germany. Complete details can be found in the official results submission that is linked from the announcement.
Needless to say, 5.3.0 does nicely in both horizontal (number of destinations) and vertical (load per destination) scalability.
It is fitting to see Apache ActiveMQ being used in the world's first SPECjms2007 submission.

ActiveMQ has been added to Hudson continuous-integration server instance at Apache http://hudson.zones.apache.org/hudson/job/ActiveMQ/. Now you can have more insight into test runs and snapshot builds. Hudson will also send failure reports to our dev mailing list, making us address them promptly.
As a part of this change, the snapshots location and Maven repository has changed. If you're using ActiveMQ snapshots in your projects, be sure to add the following repository to your Maven configuration:
