Jetty and CometD Expert Services
Introduction The Jetty Project provided to the Java community support for NPN first (the precursor of ALPN) in Java 7, and then support for ALPN in Java 8. The ALPN support was implemented by modifying sun.security.ssl classes, and this required
Jetty 9 introduced the Eat-What-You-Kill execution strategy to apply mechanically sympathetic techniques to the scheduling of threads in the producer-consumer pattern that are used for core capabilities in the server. The initial implementations proved vulnerable to thread starvation and Jetty-9.3 introduced dual
At the Jetty Project we have been getting reports from the community as well as seeing random failures of load tests and benchmarks that were using TLS, and the failures were only happening with Java 11 (any version up to
Jetty and the Java Module System. Java 9 introduced the arguably biggest change in the Java platform since its inception, the Java Module System (a.k.a. Project Jigsaw, or Java Platform Module System – JPMS). The Java Module System primarily targets
Andres Almiray (aalmiray) interviewed me at the JCrete unconference. We spoke about the history of the Jetty project (which is 22 years old – like Java itself), how Jetty has been able to stay on the edge all these years,
I was invited to speak at the JAX conference in Mainz about HTTP/2. Jetty has always been a front-runner when it’s about web protocols: first with WebSocket, then with SPDY and finally with HTTP/2. We believe that HTTP/2 is going
HTTP/2 is now the official RFC 7540, and it’s about time to deploy your website on HTTP/2, to get the numerous benefits that HTTP/2 brings. A very typical deployment is to have Apache (or Nginx) working as a reverse proxy
I had the pleasure to speak at the GeeCON 2015 Conference in Kraków, Poland, where I presented a HTTP/2 session and a new session about the G1 garbage collector (slides below). G1 Garbage Collector: Details and Tuning from Simone Bordet
With the approach of the release candidate for Jetty 9.3.0 in the next days, we have implemented support for HTTP/2 cleartext upgrade mechanism, on server side, resolving issue #465857. This means that you can configure a Jetty server to speak
A producer consumer pattern for Jetty HTTP/2 with mechanical sympathy Developing scalable servers in Java now requires careful consideration of mechanical sympathetic issues to achieve both high throughput and low latency. With the introduction of HTTP/2 multiplexed semantics to Jetty,
