Standards Foundation. Home » About » XMPP Standards Foundation The XMPP Standards Foundation (formerly the Jabber Software Foundation) is an independent, nonprofit standards development organization whose primary mission is to define open protocols for presence, instant messaging, and real-time communication and collaboration on top of the IETF’s Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP). The XSF also provides information and infrastructure to the worldwide community of Jabber/XMPP developers, service providers, and end users.
At the core of the XSF is its elected Membership who, in turn, elect a Council (the technical leadership) and Board (the business leadership). If you have an interest in XMPP, it is straightforward to become a Member of the XSF. If you have any questions about the XMPP Standards Foundation, visit the contact page or get in touch with the Executive Director directly. One small voice » Got Applications?

Je conseille en complément la lecture rapide de ses slides à l’eComm. En effet même si XMPP est de plus en plus utilisé en backend, HTTP via REST est toujours autant populaire pour fournir des APIs publics.
Cependant, à moins de s’appeler Google ou Amazon et d’avoir suffisamment de ressources en matériels et bande passante à gaspiller, ce protocole synchrone nécessitant des poolings n’est pas du tout adapté comme il l’explique avec l’exemple de Twitter.Le problème de Twitter n’est pas Rails. Leur problème est de proposer un service ayant de plus en plus de succès, utilisé par de plus en plus d’applications tierces et traitant une somme considérable de données à chaque seconde. Bien sûr HTTP n’est pas prêt de disparaître en tant que protocole navigateur web serveur.
