JMS
    (JMS) An API for accessing
   enterprise messaging systems from Java programs.  Java
   Message Service, part of the J2EE suite, provides standard
   APIs that Java developers can use to access the common
   features of enterprise message systems.  JMS supports the
   publish/subscribe and point-to-point models and allows the
   creation of message types consisting of arbitrary Java
   objects.  JMS provides support for administration, security,
   error handling, and recovery, optimisation, distributed
   transactions, message ordering, message acknowledgment, and
   more.
