TCP Server/Client Communication and RMI Framework

SCS - TCP Server/Client Communication and RMI Framework

What is SCS?

• It is well documented open source server/client framework.
• Allows remote method calls from client to server and from server to client easily. Can throw exceptions across applications.
• Allows acynhronous or synchronous low level messaging instead of remote method calls.
• It is scalable (15000+ clients concurrently connected and communicating while server has only 50-60 threads) and fast (5,500 remote method calls, 62,500 messages transfer between applications in a second running in a regular PC).
• Allows clients to automatically reconnect to the server.
• Allows clients to automatically ping to the server to keep the connection available when no communication occurs with the server for a while.
• Allows a server to register events for new client connections, disconnecting of a client, etc.
• Allows a client to register events for connecting and disconnecting.
• It is suitable for long session connections between clients and server.
