How to Build WebSocket Web Applications
The WebSocket protocol is now a standard internet protocol (RFC 6455), and almost all browsers supports it well. Differently from HTTP, WebSocket supports true bidirectional communication, enabling developers to build more scalable web applications.
HTTP, WebSocket and SPDY: Evolution of Web Protocols
This session will run you through the history and future of web protocols, starting from HTTP,
then moving to WebSocket and finally to SPDY (the new protocol on the block), analyzing pros and cons
of each protocol, its browser and server support, with a final look at what HTTP 2.0 might look like and how web servers such as Jetty 9 may need to change architecture to support these new protocols.
Extreme Web Messaging with CometD
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.
