The Radialware Comet Server
Traditional web sites are designed so that your customers have to constantly
reload your company's web page to obtain new information. With the Radialware
Comet Server you can push information to your customers without requiring
their interaction.
Consider a page containing stock quotes. On a typical web page containing one or
more stock quotes a user would have to reload the page whenever the new price data
is needed. If you built a web page using our Comet Server a user would open the
web page using a regular web browser but you would be able to change data on the page
on the fly!
As the name of the product suggests, we use an adaptation of the Comet protocol. On
a normal web page a user's browser will request a web page and then immediately
disconnect. The Comet protocol is designed to force a browser to maintain an open
connection to the server so that the server can send data continuously or on demand.
This makes the Radialware Comet Server ideal for applications such as:
- Customer support online chat sessions
- Stock tracking
- Remote monitoring of industrial and medical real-time data
- News alerts and broadcasts
There are a few commercial products available but our product is different. Not only
is it stable, fast, and a platform on which you can build sophisticated Web 2.0
applications, but it is also FREE!
