In this episode, we break down how to design a resilient IBM MQ® architecture for hybrid cloud environments — and why separating High Availability (HA) from Disaster Recovery (DR) is critical for modern messaging systems.

Joining the conversation are Tom McCuch, Vice President of Pre-Sales at meshIQ; Navdeep Sidhu, CEO of meshIQ; and Kim Clark, Integration and Process Architect at IBM Resilient IBM MQ® in Hybrid Cloud.

Together, they explore RTO and RPO expectations, Native HA, cross-region replication, clustering, and the realities of zero data loss. The episode also highlights how meshIQ brings essential visibility and operational control to complex IBM MQ® estates spanning on-prem, cloud, and containers — helping teams track message flows, monitor health, and respond confidently.
