Before reading the rest of this I do recommend you just use the newer version. The below and other emails are most likely more information then you ned to know.
0mq is GPL that might help you decide if you are making a Commercial or Government product. Where is Netty is Apache Licensed. I don’t believe the Apache Storm community will want to support 0mq and if you want to future proof yourself. I am most likely confusing you with details but for you information the Apache release of Storm defaults to Netty, whereas the older release defaulted to 0mq. Storm-0.9.0.1 most likely has more installations just because 0.9.1-incubating is a newer releases. The only reason why the –incubating tab is on there is because Storm is making the transition into Apache and does not signify that this releases is any less stable then the older version. When you say integrating with other systems those other systems don’t include Storm correct? If they do then you have to take that into account.

This was helpful. But as you mentioned, I have no clue if I would be needing 0mq or Netty. The project I am re-starting was developed on storm-0.9.0.1 initially and I would be responsible for establishing required environment setup and making valuable updates while integrating it with other systems. So, if there could be any additional information which could make the choice easier in this context? There seems good support available from online storm communities for 0.9.1-incubating. Does the same could be said for storm-0.9.0.1?

If you want to use 0mq with the apache incubation there is some additional work you must do to add it back. I do not work on the Apache Storm team but it looks like going forward they are dropping support for it. If you have no clue if you want 0mq or Netty then I would say go with the Apache Version (0.9.1-incubating). I will leave it to other to give you more justification why you may want 0mq or not.

I was wondering what would be the best practice to work with in terms of storm latest version - storm-0.9.0.1<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/dj86w8ojecgsam7/storm-0.9.0.1.zip> or apache-storm-0.9.1-incubating<http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/storm/apache-storm-0.9.1-incubating/apache-storm-0.9.1-incubating.tar.gz> I was hoping if I could get logical advice on why one should be preferred over other at the current situation? Thanks and Regards, Abhishek Roy
