Non-blocking io webserver / framework for java

Question

Does anyone know any node.js style webserver framework for java? I realized that having a non-blocking callback behavior when processing a web request would require deep support at the web server level. I'm interested in node.js, but when I have a web server that finishes saving data, I would like to use the static type system offered by Java. However, I want the scalability of non-blocking io.

Answer 1

Grizzly may be what you are looking for.

Also, if you are interested in using the Servlet API, which also offers asynchronous support with 3.0 , then it might be useful to know that decent servletcontainers also support NIO (often just using Grizzly under covers), such as Apache Tomcat 7 and Oracle Glassfish 3 .

Answer 5

I asked myself the same question, and instead of looking, as it should, I looked at how you can write a framework for deploying software components on a nio server, similar to how you can deploy servlets and ejbs to a Java EE container.
