Ajax Push allows the application to incrementally update any part of the page at any time, for any group of clients. This is a small change in terms of the technical capabilities of Ajax applications, but it is a revolutionary change in terms of what applications can actually provide to users. Ajax Push is the key to building collaborative multi-user applications for the web. Under the Hood The intricacies of the Ajax Push implementation are completely transparent to the ICEfaces developer, as you work with a straightforward set of APIs. It is, however, useful to understand the basic mechanics. Ajax Push in ICEfaces 2.0 leverages an asynchronous notification mechanism call ICEpush. Simply put, ICEpush uses long polling to provide asynchronous notification over standard HTTP, using only standard browser capabilities. The sequence of events involved in Ajax Push is illustrated below.

Ajax Push enables real-time collaborative applications, based on a mechanism call ICEpush. Check out the Ajax Push overview before delving into the API. ICEpush Library - icepush.jar To enable Ajax Push with ICEfaces 2, you simply include the icepush.jar library with your application.

Atmosphere is a POJO based framework using Inversion of Control (IoC) to bring push/Comet and Websocket to the masses! Finally a framework which can run on any Java based Web Server, including Tomcat, Jetty, GlassFish, Weblogic, Grizzly, JBossWeb and JBoss, Resin, etc. without having to learn how Comet or WebSocket support has been differently implemented by all those Containers. The Atmosphere Framework has both client (JQuery PlugIn) and server components. Servlet 3.0 is supported along with framework like Jersey (natively), GWT (natively), Wicket, Guice, Spring etc. and programming language like JRuby, Gr oovy and Scala. We also support massive scalability with our Cluster plugin architecture (JGroups, JMS/ActiveMQ, Redis, XMPP,i etc.)

"http://www.atompub.org/ defines a simple interface over HTTP to publish and subscribe to artifacts (files) and collections of artifacts (services/packages). AtomPub interface serves following purposes: 1: provide "feeds" for people/systems to monitor for changes: For example, user subscribes to a feed which lists contents of package or user subscribes to feed which lists changed contents in a package 2. provide the default remote api to push/pull content and meta data from the repository. This allows other applications to integrate with Guvnor by accessing repository content via atom pub programmatically."
