WebMux Layer |
-
WebMux provides lightweight connection semantics suited for HTTP traffic
-
HTTP/1.x has shown the importance of awareness of layers (take advantage
of the services)
-
Transport Stack Flexibility
-
Datagrams and byte streams (current focus on streams)
-
Can hook into other transport stacks (wireless, multicast etc.)
-
Bi-directional over same TCP/IP connection
-
Server can become client and client become server
-
Interesting for notifications, callbacks, etc.
-
End points are identified by URIs
