Comments on: Distributed programming with Jabber and EventMachine http://nutrun.com/weblog/distributed-programming-with-jabber-and-eventmachine/ Just another WordPress weblog Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:41:35 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Dan http://nutrun.com/weblog/distributed-programming-with-jabber-and-eventmachine/#comment-1106 Dan Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:41:33 +0000 http://nutrun.com/?p=137#comment-1106 I haven't used the Jabber protocol as a message queue before like this, but my only concern is does it allow some sort of way to ensure that each message has guaranteed one-time delivery? If I sent out a message to the "cloud" I would want to make sure every message is either processed by a worker or held in the queue until a worker is available. My concern is that if workers were backed up, or (worst case) completely down, I would want to ensure no messages were lost.

This way multiple application could "subscribe" to a node where other applications can pass events, and those applications can process those events however they need to. This event model could be easily distributed, and if you used ejabberd as your jabber server, you could have a pretty powerful and fault tolerant way to perform distributed programming tasks. Very very interesting. I like the idea, and I think this could be a good fit for the Jabber PubSub spec (http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html).

I wrote an instant messenger on it once and the protocol is just plain bad. Lots of elements called 'a' and 'x' all with different namespaces. It's about time we had a new IM protocol, maybe based around ATOM. I do hope XMPP doesn’t become the event system of distributed storage.
