Re: [jetty-users] Vert.x-like functionality in Jetty?

[Otis Gospodnetic <otis_gospodnetic@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Are you saying CometD provides the same scalability and concurrency Vert.x claims to provide?

If CometD provides (and has been providing for years) the high scalability and concurrency support, what's all Vert.x all about?  Is it the case that while CometD may provide the same stuff Vert.x does, CometD is not widely known or is at least not as popular? (if so, that can be critical for its future)

Thanks,

Otis

You should have a look at CometD, http://cometd.org.

CometD is a web messaging platform, it scales well (see
http://webtide.intalio.com/2011/09/cometd-2-4-0-websocket-benchmarks/),
it's mature (years of experience) and has been successfully deployed
on small and large systems for years now, relying on standard
technologies such as Servlets and WebSocket.

What is it that appealed you in Vert.x, apart the (frankly
irrealistic) benchmark it was published some time ago, that you would
like to see in Jetty/CometD ?
