IBM WebSphere MQ is a hot technology software tool tracked in the Cloud-based management software category of O*NET's Technology Skills file. It appears in the technology profile of 8 occupations that together employ about 4,279,280 workers, with a median wage of $108,970. O*NET flags it as a hot technology — a skill frequently requested in job postings.
Across the occupations that use it, the work is 85th percentile for AI task-exposure (High) — how much of what those jobs do overlaps with what today's AI can attempt. That measures the exposure of the work, not the value of the tool or any sign it is being replaced. See where every tool category sits →
