Writing this book has been like discovering RabbitMQ itself—encountering a problem
that needed solving, but not knowing what the solution looked like. Until May
2010, we didn’t even know each other. We both had been active in the RabbitMQ community
for the past two years, but we’d never actually bumped into each other. Then
one day a conversation with Alexis Richardson (Rabbit’s CEO at the time) introduced
Alvaro and me to each other, and made what you hold in your hands possible. What
we had in common was a desire to write down in a single place all the knowledge we
had acquired about RabbitMQ the hard way. Back in 2010, that knowledge was (and
today still largely is) scattered across the internet in a smattering of blog articles and
terse technical tutorials. In other words, we both wanted to write the book we wished
had existed when we started with RabbitMQ two years earlier.
