WebSocket is a computer communications protocol, providing a simultaneous two-way communication channel over a single Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection. The WebSocket protocol was standardized by the IETF as RFC 6455 in 2011. The current specification allowing web applications to use this protocol is known as WebSockets. [1]
The WebSocket protocol is implemented in different web browsers, web servers, and run-time environments and libraries acting as clients or servers. The following is a table of different features of notable WebSocket implementations. Client (library) Server (library) Version compared. Protocol (spec) version support. Protocol test report.

xterm is the standard terminal emulator for the X Window System. It allows users to run programs which require a command-line interface. If no particular program is specified, xterm runs the user's shell. An X display can show one or more user's xterm windows output at the same time. [2][3] Each xterm window is a separate process, but all share ...
SSH is a secure network protocol that is commonly used to remotely control servers, network devices, and other devices. With web-based SSH, users can access and manage these devices using a standard web browser, without the need to install any additional software. Web-based SSH clients are typically implemented using JavaScript and either Ajax ...
Server-Sent Events (SSE) is a server push technology enabling a client to receive automatic updates from a server via an HTTP connection, and describes how servers can initiate data transmission towards clients once an initial client connection has been established. They are commonly used to send message updates or continuous data streams to a ...
JavaScript and XML. Ajax (also AJAX / ˈeɪdʒæks /; short for " asynchronous JavaScript and XML " [1][2]) is a set of web development techniques that uses various web technologies on the client-side to create asynchronous web applications. With Ajax, web applications can send and retrieve data from a server asynchronously (in the background ...
Comet is a web application model in which a long-held HTTPS request allows a web server to push data to a browser, without the browser explicitly requesting it. [1][2] Comet is an umbrella term, encompassing multiple techniques for achieving this interaction. All these methods rely on features included by default in browsers, such as JavaScript ...
Socket.IO is an event-driven library for real-time web applications. It enables real-time, bi-directional communication between web clients and servers. [3] It consists of two components: a client, and a server. Both components have a nearly identical API. Socket.IO is also a protocol, [4] where different complying implementations of the ...
