Matt, out of interest - does the connection manager aggregate many c2s connections into a smaller set of streams or does it handle the authentication process and pass authenticated streams to the Wildfire server or does it do something else? Does the client maintain a connection to the connection manager for the life of the session?
Thank You, Stephen -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matt Tucker Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2006 8:33 PM To: Jabber software development list Subject: [jdev] [ANN] Wildfire 3.0 Beta and Wildfire Enterprise Hey all, A few announcements today. First, Wildfire 3.0 beta is now available. It includes two major new features: * Connection manager architecture. Connection managers are light-weight processes that handle load by aggregating client connections to a core Wildfire server. Multiple connection managers can be deployed to handle very large numbers of users. We're developing the connection manager protocol as a JEP, which we hope to make available soon. Our Open Source implementation of the protocol is available at: http://www.jivesoftware.org/wildfire/connection_manager.jsp
