Baptiste, well, it depends on our definition of "persistence". :-)
If we consider persistence to be the requirement that multiple [0]
connections be routed to one common back-end server [1], then strictly
speaking, the SMPP protocol [2] is non-persistent; each SMPP connection is
completely independent and does not share any "state" with any other connection.
Cheers! :-)
Ben.
[0] TCP or whatever
[1] because there is common knowledge (e.g. session state) that needs to
be shared between multiple connections - yay for HTTP! - :-)
[2] as I knew it, and how we used it
