What is the difference between synchronous and asynchronous protocols? Why http/rest is synchronous while AMQP is asynchronous? Where can I have a good overview on these two protocols?

Thank you.

You can find a interesting description of AMQP in wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Message_Queuing_Protocol

There is a interesting description abot sync / async on Stackoverflow.

Asynchronous vs synchronous execution, what does it really mean?
