Kaazing Universal Clients
Welcome to the Kaazing Universal Clients Repository!
This repository contains the code of the Open Source Kaazing Universal Client and under the hood explanations with details on how the protocol/technology clients are created.
Introduction
Creating real-time applications requires the use of a publish/subscribe message bus to push messages to clients. This message bus might be a JMS server, or another popular choice, the AMQP protocol. The Kaazing WebSocket Gateway, when connected to a message bus, enables these messages to be delivered over Web protocols (HTTP/HTTPS/WS/WSS).
The goal of these libraries is to provide developers with a simple, universal WebSocket client library that is accessed the same way regardles of the underlying message protocol/technology. This library simplifies the development of Websocket client applications communicating with JMS or AMQP editions of the Kaazing WebSocket Gateway.
The Kaazing Universal Clients provide the facade for Kaazing-specific protocol/technology libraries. These clients:
- Implement basic publish-subscribe functionality to help developers get started with their WebSocket projects
- Provide developers with protocol/technology specific implementations for reference

Organization of the Universal Clients
Regardless of the client technology, all of the clients are organized as shown on the following diagram:
