Does Kaazing use the Bayeux protocol?
No. Most Comet implementations rely on the Bayeux protocol, which requires messages from the origin to be transformed to conform to the Bayeux protocol. This transformation introduces unnecessary complexity in your system, requiring developers to manipulate one message format on the server (for example, JMS, IMAP, and XMPP) and a second message format (for example, Bayeux or JSON) on the client. Bayeux also introduces an unnecessary performance overhead to your system by forcing a message to be interpreted and processed prior to being sent over the wire. With WebSocket, the message sent by the server is the same message that is delivered to the browser, eliminating the complexity and performance concerns introduced by transformation code.
