Justin RabbitHub does two things: 1. implement PuSH with a backend that has what you might call "enterprise features", though I don't much like that term 2. provide a way to bridge across PuSH, XMPP, AMQP
If you don't care about 2, you may still care about 1. If you want to integrate PuSH with Java, you may want to take advantage of 2, because then you can use Spring and Java: http://www.rabbitmq.com/devtools.html If you are a Spring shop note that Spring's recommended messaging is RabbitMQ - we are all part of VMware nowadays.. For admin and auth please see: * Mgmt: http://www.rabbitmq.com/plugins.html#rabbitmq-management * Auth: http://www.rabbitmq.com/plugins.html#experimental This may not do everything you want, but I suspect it's the closest you'll get without building something of your own. I'm not suggesting that you should not build something of your own ;-) alexis On Thu, Mar 24, 2011 at 1:02 PM, Justin Richer <[email protected]> wrote: > We haven't looked at RabbitHub, but I don't think that it actually fits > our use cases.
