Socket.IO. 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 ...
Network socket. A network socket is a software structure within a network node of a computer network that serves as an endpoint for sending and receiving data across the network. The structure and properties of a socket are defined by an application programming interface (API) for the networking architecture. Sockets are created only during the ...
Netty (software) Netty is a non-blocking I/O client-server framework for the development of Java network applications such as protocol servers and clients. The asynchronous event-driven network application framework and tools are used to simplify network programming such as TCP and UDP socket servers. [2] Netty includes an implementation of the ...
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 ]
Web Application Messaging Protocol. WAMP is a WebSocket subprotocol registered at IANA, [1] specified [2] to offer routed RPC and PubSub. Its design goal [3] is to provide an open standard for soft, real-time message exchange between application components and ease the creation of loosely coupled architectures based on microservices.
Unix domain socket. In client-server computing, a Unix domain socket is a Berkeley socket that allows data to be exchanged between two processes executing on the same Unix or Unix-like host computer. [1] This is similar to an Internet domain socket that allows data to be exchanged between two processes executing on different host computers.
Berkeley sockets. A Berkeley (BSD) socket is an application programming interface (API) for Internet domain sockets and Unix domain sockets, used for inter-process communication (IPC). It is commonly implemented as a library of linkable modules. It originated with the 4.2BSD Unix operating system, which was released in 1983.
Jakarta Servlet. A Jakarta Servlet, formerly Java Servlet is a Java software component that extends the capabilities of a server. Although servlets can respond to many types of requests, they most commonly implement web containers for hosting web applications on web servers and thus qualify as a server-side servlet web API.
