The Kaazing WebSocket Gateway (KWG) is a network gateway created to provide a single access point for real-time web based protocols that supports load balancing, clustering, and security management. It is designed to provide scalable and secure bidirectional event-based communication over the web; on every platform, browser, and device.
IBM MQ, Active MQ, Rabbit MQ, TIBCO EMS, etc.
KWG allows you to connect your frontend mobile and web clients to your backend JMS/AMQP compliant messaging systems. With a multitude of built-in security and performance features, it provides an accelerated path to a unified, event driven architecture.
KWG also provides a secure, robust networking infrastructure that enables WebRTC communication between peers in all common WebRTC scenarios, including video and audio communication, allowing for highly secure, personalized customer experience via the web or on a mobile device. KWG supports the techniques and protocols on top of which the WebRTC API sits (ICE, STUN, NAT, TURN, and SDP), and bidirectional signaling is performed using WebSocket. All browsers that support WebRTC also support WebSocket, both on desktop and mobile.
The world’s first enterprise-grade WebSocket server for full-duplex bi-directional data delivery
Being a stateless architecture means you can add more gateway instances and increase your scalability linearly
Easily integrate with your security system – whether it’s something like SiteMinder, or something customized and proprietary – so that you manage your users and roles in one place
Fine-grained access control to specify which domains can access your services and applications
Full support for SSL/TLS, not just for client connections, but also when communicating with backend services. Includes support for client certificates
Prevent intermediaries like proxies and load balancers from terminating connections idle connections
Supports standard load balancers like F5, but they’re not necessary. KWG also has built-in load balancing and clustering capability
Take your security to a new level by keeping inbound ports closed in your enterprise firewall – reduces attack vectors into your enterprise if your DMZ becomes compromised
Gracefully re-authorize users transparently without abruptly terminating their connections
Allow connections only from approved sources
Traffic shaping ability that lets you create tiered offerings, control bandwidth usage, and extend mobile battery lifetime
Inject user identity based on trusted authorization to prevent masquerading by malicious clients
Transparently inject 0-9-1 virtual host information into connections so they appear single-tenant to clients
Extend your existing IBM MQ investment to Mobile/Web with the highest performance solution in the market. KWG integrates directly with IBM MQ specific functionality to produce a best of breed solution.
Utilize your investment in JMS messaging systems by extending the event-driven paradigm to the web and mobile devices
Ensure clients never miss a message by redelivering any that they may have missed
Publish messages once and have them delivered to many users. Grow to web scale with your application, but don’t add pressure to your backend systems
Maintain complete control over any actions attempted by users
If the connection is interrupted, then automatically reconnect and resubscribe when the network is restored. When you come out of that elevator, your data just automatically starts flowing again
Allow slower consumers to receive an approximation of higher rate message flows so that they do not get too far behind in the message stream without impacting fast consumers
Real-time caching to deliver earlier messages to new consumers who weren’t present when the original message was sent
Send the deltas between messages to reduce bandwidth utilization and application resources
