There's a common misconception among many end-users, consumers, and developers that AJAX is the ultimate solution for the Web, and that it can provide all the same functionality as a rich desktop solution. Sure, AJAX can cover most of our expectations for a rich client, mimicking functionality provided by a desktop application, but there's still one area that has yet to be fully integrated: scalable, server-initiated message delivery - Enterprise Comet. Comet is an advanced technique to enable real-time messaging from a Web server to one or more browsers, even if some of those browsers are behind a firewall or proxy server. In this talk Jonas and John will use Faces, Dojo, Bayeux, Comet, and Grizzly to illustrate how
you can build server-initiated message driven JavaServer Faces components, and how to leverage these to build next generation Web applications. Grizzly enhances the Glassfish project with Comet support via Asynchronous Request Processing (ARP), addressing any server-side scalability concerns with Comet. Dojo Toolkit provides the client-side JavaScript support for Comet, including the Bayeux Protocol, used to coordinate shared access to the Comet notification channel coming from the server. JavaServer Faces provides the standard component abstraction for Java EE developers to create Comet-enabled Web applications using the same building blocks as traditional AJAX JSF components.
