RabbitMQ vs SpinupWP: at a glance
What is RabbitMQ?
RabbitMQ 4.4 moves to Erlang 28 and tightens OpenID Connect checks, with 4.3 still patched.
RabbitMQ shipped 4.4.0 on October 28 with full Erlang 28 support and stricter OpenID Connect discovery validation that can break setups with non-compliant identity providers. The 4.3 line keeps receiving maintenance releases: 4.3.6 in September fixed exchange deletion leaving behind bindings that pointed to it, quorum queue membership reconciliation adding too many replicas, and double-counted message store references in classic queue recovery; 4.3.7 followed in October.
What is SpinupWP?
SpinupWP's API now covers almost every site setting, so WordPress hosting can be scripted.
SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and into the dashboard and API. A September 28 release completed the site-settings API, covering backups, page cache and the rest of the settings screens. The October 20 dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters for teams managing many servers.

RabbitMQ
5.0INFRA · APIS
RabbitMQ 4.4 moves to Erlang 28 and tightens OpenID Connect checks, with 4.3 still patched.
◆ Current state
RabbitMQ shipped 4.4.0 on October 28 with full Erlang 28 support and stricter OpenID Connect discovery validation that can break setups with non-compliant identity providers. The 4.3 line keeps receiving maintenance releases: 4.3.6 in September fixed exchange deletion leaving behind bindings that pointed to it, quorum queue membership reconciliation adding too many replicas, and double-counted message store references in classic queue recovery; 4.3.7 followed in October.
◆ Where it's heading
Feature work has moved to 4.4 while 4.3 absorbs correctness fixes, many in quorum queues and cleanup paths. The stricter OIDC validation in 4.4 continues the security tightening seen in 4.3.5's encrypted management login tokens.
◆ Prediction
Expect 4.4.x patches, likely including fixes for identity providers caught by the stricter OIDC checks, alongside further 4.3.x maintenance.
SpinupWP
2.5INFRA · APIS
SpinupWP's API now covers almost every site setting, so WordPress hosting can be scripted.
◆ Current state
SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and into the dashboard and API. A September 28 release completed the site-settings API, covering backups, page cache and the rest of the settings screens. The October 20 dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters for teams managing many servers.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is heading toward fleet-scale management: bulk operations in the UI and full automation through the API. Each release removes another reason to log into a server by hand.
◆ Prediction
Expect more bulk operations on the rebuilt dashboard and server-level API endpoints to match the site ones; timing is unclear given the roughly monthly cadence.
