RocketMQ

Apache RocketMQ is a cloud-native messaging and streaming platform born at Alibaba. It delivers low latency, high throughput, and trillion-level message capacity — purpose-built for financial-grade reliability and large-scale distributed systems.

ROCKETMQ ADDON IN ACTION

Run RocketMQ with real lifecycle, scaling, tuning, and observability workflows

Operate RocketMQ with guided creation, compute and storage scaling, real parameter lists, metrics, logs, task history, and data-management handoff workflows backed by real KubeBlocks Enterprise screens.

KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ create wizard showing topology, compute, and storage options

The create wizard keeps RocketMQ topology, version, ACL, DLedger, compute, and storage choices visible before users create the cluster.

Lifecycle

Create RocketMQ clusters with topology, ACL, and storage choices

Launch RocketMQ from a guided create wizard that keeps cluster mode, version, environment, broker sizing, storage, ACL, and DLedger options visible before users commit the cluster.

  • Choose Replication or DLedger mode and review the resulting cluster footprint in the summary panel before creation.
  • Set RocketMQ version, minor version, environment, broker storage, shard count, replicas, ACL, and DLedger in one flow.
  • Keep create-time decisions explicit so users can confirm the messaging topology before provisioning starts.
KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ Vertical Scaling dialog showing CPU and memory specification options

Vertical Scaling presents RocketMQ CPU and memory choices before users submit the capacity change.

KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ Volume Expansion dialog showing storage capacity controls

Volume Expansion keeps broker storage growth explicit with current capacity, maximum capacity, and a new-size input.

Scaling

Adjust RocketMQ compute and storage from guided option dialogs

RocketMQ exposes both Vertical Scaling and Volume Expansion from the overview so users can review broker resource changes before any task is submitted.

  • Use Vertical Scaling to choose a larger CPU and memory profile such as `1C2G`, `2C4G`, or `4C16G`.
  • Use Volume Expansion to grow broker storage from the current capacity to a larger persistent size.
  • Keep compute and storage growth visible from the same RocketMQ operations surface instead of editing raw infrastructure objects.
KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ parameter list showing broker configuration values

The Parameters workspace shows RocketMQ broker values, allowed ranges, reboot requirements, and editability in one table.

Tuning

Tune RocketMQ from the real parameter list

Use the Parameters workspace to review editable RocketMQ broker settings from a real parameter table, keeping engine tuning separate from lifecycle and scaling actions.

  • Inspect broker parameters such as topic auto-creation, flush mode, ACL, and message-size controls from one table.
  • See allowed values, reboot requirements, and editability without opening a change task first.
  • Keep configuration review clear for users managing throughput, retention, and broker behavior.
KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ metrics page showing broker Cluster Monitor charts

Metrics panels give teams live RocketMQ health and resource visibility from the broker perspective.

KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ Runtime Log page showing RocketMQ log output

Runtime logs reveal RocketMQ broker, sync, and watcher activity without leaving the console.

Observability

Monitor RocketMQ components and inspect runtime messages

Keep RocketMQ visibility close to the cluster by combining monitor dashboards with runtime logs for brokers, synchronization, registration, and ACL watcher activity.

  • Open hydrated Cluster Monitor and Resource Monitor panels from the RocketMQ broker context.
  • Inspect live log lines for broker registration, slave sync, and watcher behavior.
  • Use the same console surface for both health monitoring and troubleshooting.
KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ tasks page showing scaling, restart, and reconfiguration history

Task history preserves the richest RocketMQ operation trail from the tested console session.

Audit

Keep RocketMQ change history visible from task records

Use task history to review which reconfiguration, restart, and scaling actions ran against RocketMQ and what state they reached during validation.

  • Track RocketMQ restart and reconfiguration results from one task timeline.
  • Review scaling activity alongside other day-2 actions for faster change validation.
  • Use task history as practical evidence for operational review and troubleshooting.
KubeBlocks Enterprise RocketMQ Credentials page showing account information and Create Account button

The Credentials page shows RocketMQ default accounts and where user access review begins.

RocketMQ Dashboard topic page showing a newly created topic and available follow-on operations

The RocketMQ Dashboard confirms that a real topic was created successfully and is ready for status, routing, and message operations.

Data Management

Use RocketMQ credentials and manage topics from the dashboard

RocketMQ keeps account review in the Credentials route and hands users off to the web console for topic workflows. In the validated flow, the dashboard opened successfully, `console-admin` signed in, and a real topic was created before capture.

  • See default account information and the Create Account entry point from the Credentials page.
  • Open the RocketMQ Dashboard endpoint from Data Management and sign in with the console account.
  • Create and verify a real topic from the dashboard before moving on to follow-up message and consumer tasks.
