Is it possible to setup a RabbitMQ server on an Amazon EC2 instance, and have of my machines at the office connect to this RabbitMQ server and send/receive messages to/from it?

Will I be charged by Amazon for the bandwidth / messages that flow into / out from my RabbitMQ EC2 instance?

Yes that's certainly possible and you will be charged for outbound traffic.

  • Thank you Oliver. Suppose that I created my `RabbitMQ` instance. Can other `Amazon EC2 instances` connect to it as well and send/receive messages to/from it? will this connection be secured? – user3262424 Jul 22 '11 at 15:07
  • Yes by default ONLY other instances can connect to it. You have to explicitely allow access from outside (internet) using the control panel or by script. – Oliver Weichhold Jul 23 '11 at 06:21
