I have ported LRMP (light weight reliable multicast protocol) to Go. It is available at lrmp <https://github.com/robaho/lrmp>
There is also a Java implementation there, so it makes an ideal setup for local/wan notifications between processes/servers without a broker. The Java implementation was originally done by Inria in France, and released by Sun Microsystems. I cleaned it up a bit to use modern Java facilities. In a nutshell, it adds ‘reliability’ and ‘order’ to multicast streams, so it can be far more efficient than N to N tcp based notifications. The full design is available at design document <http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.608.6403&rep=rep1&type=pdf> There was a internet specification for the protocol at one point online specification, may be newer <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-liao-lrmp-00> I am in the process of adding a ‘channels’ layer to allow simple multiplexing and large message distribution. It was mainly for my continued Go learning, but others may find it useful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
