Netty VS MINA

Netty

• New scalable, fault-tolerant, and efficient open-source MQTT broker

  We use Netty (https://netty.io/) as the source of the MQTT communication, and we build the MQTT features the MQTT broker should support ourselves on top of that.

  In this space, we also have the somewhat related term blocking. Java's NIO library is one well-known non-blocking tool used for managing multiple tasks on a single Java thread. When listening to sockets, most of the time a thread is just blocked, doing nothing until it receives some data. So, it's efficient to use a single thread for monitoring many sockets, to increase the likelihood of the thread having some actual work to do. The Selector API does this but is notoriously challenging to program well. Instead, developers use frameworks like Netty which abstract some of NIO's complexity and layer on some best practices.

  Apologies replying to myself, but Netty, which underpins many of the popular Java backend frameworks, see backward compatibility as more important than supporting green threads.

  It'll be interesting to see who (if anyone) picks up Netty's mantle in the Project Loom world.

• Possibly stupid question, is java the right language for low latency and high throughput web servers?
  10 projects | /r/java | 3 Nov 2022

  As you are in i/o tasks, you can look at spring webflux / microprofile / quarkus. If you mature enough netty (https://netty.io/) based solution will be more effecient.
