The Netty Project
· The Netty project is an effort to provide an asynchronous event-driven
network application framework and tools for rapid development of
maintainable high performance and high scalability protocol servers and
clients. In other words, Netty is a NIO client server framework which
enables quick and easy development of network applications such as protocol
servers and clients. It greatly simplifies and streamlines network
programming such as TCP and UDP socket server.
