So, I googled 'finagle java' and all the results were terrible. There was no concise description with a short example. Nothing led me to believe 'node.js' clone in anything I saw in the first few results. In fact, the first result was this: http://engineering.twitter.com/2011/08/finagle-protocol-agnostic-rpc-system.html http://engineering.twitter.com/2011/08/finagle-protocol-agno... "Protocol-agnostic RPC System" does not sound like a node clone at all.

(as a side note, what do you think REST PUT calls over HTTP on Node are?) Finagle is about composing async IO calls, e.g. here http://twitter.github.com/scala_school/finagle.html http://twitter.github.com/scala_school/finagle.html This works much better in Scala, as Java is not very good at composing Futures. It needs a lot of boiler plate code as it lacks noise free closures.
