A lot of ground was covered in this chapter. We learned about the architectural and design promises of messaging and how AMQP and RabbitMQ deliver on these promises. We discovered the reason why Clever Coney Media decided to introduce RabbitMQ in their software landscape. Finally, we installed and configured a RabbitMQ broker.

It's time to hit the ground running and write some code. You can now turn to the next chapter to start building your first RabbitMQ-powered application!
