Extreme Web Messaging with CometD
RWX / CDX
Fort Lauderdale · November 27 - 30, 2012
About this Presentation
This session will introduce you to the CometD project, an open source web messaging framework.
The CometD framework allows web clients to be notified of server-side events, typical in applications such as chat rooms, online games, financial trading, sports and news portals, and more.
CometD leverages the most efficient comet techniques and integrates seamlessly with WebSocket, to provide developers with a transport-independent API based on either Dojo, jQuery, RequireJS or other JavaScript toolkits. Finally, CometD clustering capabilities and real world examples will be presented.
