Practical Protocols: XMPPPDF Download for free:
Book Description:
XMPP (eXtensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) is a messaging protocol that enables communication between two or more devices via the Internet. It is used primarily to power instant-messaging services such as Jabber and WhatsApp. In this way, it is similar to other protocols such as WebRTC, which enable near real-time communication between Internet-connected devices.
With this book, developers will learn about the fundamentals of XMPP, be able to work with the core functionality both server-side and in the browser, as well as starting to explore several of the protocol extensions. Get a solid grasp of XMPP and how it works, and be able to use the protocol to build real-world applications that utilize the power of XMPP. By the end of this book, you will know more about networking applications in general, have a good understanding of how to extend XMPP for your needs, and use it in applications.
