Product Description

Book Description

Building Real-Time Applications with Jabber(r) Technologies

Product Description

This practical book provides everything you need to know about the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP). This open technology for real-time communication is used in many diverse applications such as instant messaging, Voice over IP, real-time collaboration, social networking, microblogging, lightweight middleware, cloud computing, and more.

XMPP: The Definitive Guide walks you through the thought processes and design decisions involved in building a complete XMPP-enabled application, and adding real-time interfaces to existing applications. You'll not only learn simple yet powerful XMPP tools, but you'll also discover, through real-world developer stories, how common XMPP "building blocks" can help solve particular classes of problems.

With this book, you will:

  • Learn the basics of XMPP technologies, including architectural issues, addressing, and communication primitives
  • Understand the terminology of XMPP and learn about the wealth of XMPP servers, clients, and code libraries
  • Become familiar with the XMPP concepts and services you need to solve common problems
  • Construct a complete business application or real-time service with XMPP

Every day, more software developers and service providers are using XMPP for real-time applications, and with the help of XMPP: The Definitive Guide, you can, too.

I did a technical review of this book, and on the basis of that, I wrote a quote for the publisher to stick on the back - which they did. I stand by what I wrote there - if you want to know about XMPP (aka Jabber) then you really do - honestly - need this book.

There are very few people as qualified as Peter, Kev, and Remko to write this book - they've had an enormous part in making XMPP what it is, and it's quite astonishing that they can not only design protocols and write specifications, but they can also turn out a surprisingly light read which covers pretty much every corner of the technology, in huge depth.

I actually liked reading this book - I'm supposed to know it all, but given who wrote it, it's hardly a surprise that there were one or two new things there for me. But above all, I found it enjoyable. Technical books aren't really meant to be a good read, but it's certainly nice when they are.

A very good book on XMPP, Being new to this techonology, I found it very easy to read and finished the book in a relative short space of time.

The content itself is very useful, would recommend this book to somone starting out in XMPP as well as more experianced developers, contains some useful pointers which even my experianced members of the team didnt know.

Very comprehensive technical reference for understanding and implementing solutions based on XMPP. Presence, messaging, publish/subscribe, examples all covered.

Shame that O'Reilly decided to print to demonstrate that you shouldn't print books on cheap, thin recycled paper. By far the worst packaging imprint I've seen of an O'Reilly publication.
