STACKIT RabbitMQ provides managed multi-protocol message queuing.

## Service Overview
- **Multi-Protocol Support**: Natively supports AMQP, STOMP, and MQTT messaging protocols.
- **High Availability**: Multi-node cluster replication prevents message loss during node failures.
- **Automated Operations**: Handles broker patching and updates.

## Technical Details
- **Isolation**: Provisioned on dedicated virtual machines within isolated project VPC networks.
- **Security**: Granular Access Control Lists (ACLs) enforce strict queue permissions.

^1dedicated CPU for highest performance

All service plans have SSL support. We offer up-to-date TLS v.1.3 that has removed common vulnerabilities and improved performance compared to earlier versions.

> From the STACKIT docs: [Concepts of RabbitMQ › Backup and Recovery](https://docs.stackit.cloud/products/messaging/rabbitmq/basics/concepts/#backup-and-recovery) (Source updated 06.07.2026, copied 05.10.2026)

Our Backup Manager is configured to perform a full backup every 4 hours and keep backups for the last 14 days.

Of course, you can manually trigger additional backups from the service dashboard, where you can also select and restore an existing backup.

## Limitations & Constraints
- **Private VPC Only**: Accessible exclusively via private VPC networks (public endpoints unavailable).
