After having some discussions on spdy-dev and having some experience with our current push implementation, we’ve decided to change a few things to the better. Jetty now sends all push resources non interleaved to the client. That means that the push resources are being sent sequentially to the client one Read more…
We have SPDY to SPDY and HTTP to SPDY proxy functionality implemented in Jetty for a while now. An important and very common use case however is a SPDY to HTTP proxy. Imagine a network architecture where network components like firewalls need to inspect application layer contents. If those network Read more…
Jetty 9’s NIO code is a nearly complete rewrite with improved architecture, cleaner and clearer code base and best of all it’ll be even faster and more efficient than jetty 7/8’s NIO layer. Detecting concurrent code issues is usually not a trivial thing. In today’s blog I will describe how Read more…
We keep pushing our SPDY implementation and with the upcoming Jetty release we provide a fully functional SPDY proxy server out of the box. Simply by configuration you can setup Jetty to provide a SPDY connector where clients can connect to via SPDY and will be transparently proxied to a Read more…
I’ve done a quick run with the Page Benchmarker Extension on chromium to measure the difference between http and SPDY + push. Enabling benchmarks restricts chromium to SPDY draft 2 so we’ll run without flow control. Note that the website is not the fastest (in fact it’s pretty slow). But Read more…
SPDY, Google’s web protocol, is gaining momentum. Intending to improve the user’s web experience it aims at severely reducing page load times. We’ve blogged about the protocol and jetty’s straight forward SPDY support already: Jetty-SPDY is joining the revolution! and SPDY support in Jetty. No we’re taking this a step Read more…
