Hi all,
In servlet 3.1 we have to support assync io and upgrade to raw
buffering, would that work with traffic server.

I'm not familiar with servlet, doing some Bing'ing, it seems to be a
Java spec, JSR 340? Is that it?
Yes it is JSR 340.
ATS obviously supports asynchronous I/O, it's a fundamental part of the
design (everything is asynchronous). What exactly do you mean with raw
buffering? You want to upgrade the HTTP connection to some other
protocol?
Yes it is a kind of upgrade to no protocol the data are send and
received in a raw mode until the connection is closed. In Tomcat we
get that by removing all filters. We use that for websocket for example:
GET /all//upgrade00 HTTP/1.1
host: localhost
Sorry, I dropped the ball on this. Yeah, I don't think that this would
work with ATS, but I honestly don't know. It's an interesting problem
(and idea) though, and something we should maybe brainstorm over.
Supporting e.g. Web Sockets in general (which uses a similar protocol
upgrade) would be incredibly useful. I honestly have no idea how this
would work in ATS, or what it entails.
