Lab 2 overview
In this lab, you’ll use IBM® Message Hub, which is a cloud-based messaging service.
Prerequisites
You need the following account and software:
- IBM Bluemix account or a developerWorks Premium subscription
- Web browser supported by Bluemix
- GitHub sample project access: https://github.com/ibmecod/mqlight-fishalive-node
Note: Creating a topic with one or more partitions in the Message Hub service by using the Standard plan does have a fee in IBM Bluemix. If you have a subscription or pay-as-you-go account, check the service details to understand the cost.
This lab does not take a long time to complete, and you can remove the service after completing the lab to minimize the service fees until you are ready to build your application with Message Hub.
