Twisted

|
|
|
|
`Twisted <https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/>`_ is an event-driven networking
|
|
engine. It can be used to build applications around many different networking
|
|
protocols, including HTTP servers and clients, applications using SMTP, POP3,
|
|
IMAP, or SSH protocols, instant messaging,
|
|
and `much more <https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Documentation>`_.

PyZMQ

|
*****
|
|
|
|
`PyZMQ <https://zeromq.github.com/pyzmq/>`_ is the Python binding for
|
|
`ZeroMQ <http://zeromq.org/>`_, which is a high-performance asynchronous
|
|
messaging library. One great advantage of ZeroMQ is that it can be used for
|
|
message queuing without a message broker. The basic patterns for this are:
|
|
|
|
- request-reply: connects a set of clients to a set of services. This is a
|
|
remote procedure call and task distribution pattern.
|
|
- publish-subscribe: connects a set of publishers to a set of subscribers.
|
|
This is a data distribution pattern.
|
|
- push-pull (or pipeline): connects nodes in a fan-out/fan-in pattern that
|
|
can have multiple steps and loops. This is a parallel task distribution
|
|
and collection pattern.
|
|
|
|
For a quick start, read the `ZeroMQ guide <http://zguide.zeromq.org/page:all>`_.

`gevent <http://www.gevent.org/>`_ is a coroutine-based Python networking
|
|
library that uses greenlets to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of
|
|
the libev event loop.
