Title : The Web Socket protocol
Author(s) : I. Hickson
Filename : draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-63.txt
Pages : 38
Date : 2009-12-07
The Web Socket protocol enables two-way communication between a user
agent running untrusted code running in a controlled environment to a
remote host that has opted-in to communications from that code. The
security model used for this is the Origin-based security model
commonly used by Web browsers. The protocol consists of an initial
handshake followed by basic message framing, layered over TCP. The
goal of this technology is to provide a mechanism for browser-based
applications that need two-way communication with servers that does
not rely on opening multiple HTTP connections (e.g. using
XMLHttpRequest or <iframe>s and long polling).Author's note
