Hi Loic, thanks for the note and it's cool to follow your work from afar. It looks like we get excited about the same stuff :) Disclaimer: I co-founded dotCloud and have the distinctive honor of being the least knowledgeable about zeromq in the entire team.
Your comment might have been true 18 months ago - when we first started using zerorpc in production at dotCloud. Since then, we have deployed and scaled hundreds of thousands of applications and I shudder just to imagine how many billions of zeromq messages we have emitted and processed. Believe me we have been through the zeromq guide many times and have experimented with - and abused - many patterns (including majordomo which, as you fail to mention, is not supported out of the box by zeromq and requires a fair amount of custom code of its own).
I'm sure zerorpc has many flaws and I know the team looks forward to many constructive debates and - hopefully - patches. But lack of understanding of the zeromq fundamentals, or lack of real-world usage, are 2 things you definitely don't need to worry about :)
- Loic 15y agoHi Solomon, thank you for your nice comments. Bombela very nicely explained the whys HAProxy, with his explanations everything fall in place nicely (and I must say, I will test drive HAProxy with ZMQ).
