Message Queue vs Task Queue vs Message Broker: why are these always mixed up?
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1stchku/message_queue_vs_task_queue_vs_message_broker_why/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Title: Message Queue vs Task Queue vs Message Broker: why are these always mixed up? While working with Celery, Redis, and RabbitMQ, I kept seeing people use message queue, task queue, and message broker interchangeably. After looking into the documentation and real implementations, here’s how I understand it: Message Queue: just moves messages (one consumer per message). Message Broker: manages queues, routes, retries, and protocols. Task Queue: executes actual jobs using workers. They’re not alternatives; they work together in production systems. One interesting thing I noticed is that a lot of confusion comes from tools like Redis, which can act as both a simple queue and a broker-like system, and Celery, which abstracts everything. I’m curious how others think about this. Do you keep these concepts separate in your architecture or treat them more loosely? I also wrote a deeper breakdown with examples (Celery, RabbitMQ, SQS) if anyone’s interested. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Civil_Station_1164 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Civil_Station_1164)
