Net4j is an extensible client-server platform based on OSGi but also executable stand-alone.
You can easily extend it with Eclipse plugins to provide new transports or application protocols.
In addition to performance and scalability Net4j provides clean APIs for users and extenders.
Core Features
- Extensible signalling framework for application protocols (IProtocol, SignalProtocol)
- Extensible transport framework for physical transports (IConnector, IAcceptor)
- Multiplexing of different application protocols (IChannel)
- Fast, asynchronous and non-blocking buffering kernel (IBuffer)
Transports
- NIO-based TCP transport implementation (ITCPConnector, ITCPAcceptor)
- In-process JVM transport implementation (IJVMConnector, IJVMAcceptor)
- Polling HTTP transport implementation (IHTTPConnector, IHTTPAcceptor)
Examples
- Extensible collaborations platform with buddy list, chat, fileshare, ...
- JMS(TM) provider implementation (experimental but functional)
Utilities
- Caching and monitoring framework
- Special collections
- Concurrency support
- Wiring framework (managed containers)
- Event framework
- Factory framework
- Generic finite state machine (FSM)
- I/O tools
- Lifecycle framework
- Operations and maintenance framework (OM)
- Platform abstraction (OSGi, Eclipse runtime, stand alone)
- Bundle abstraction
