Pub/Sub

Faye

http://faye.jcoglan.com/ » Faye: Simple pub/sub messaging for the web http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6333992/faye-or-redis-pubsub :: publish subscribe - Faye or Redis Pubsub - Stack Overflow Redis pubsub as backend engine: https://github.com/faye/faye-redis-node :: faye/faye-redis-node

Faye and Redis pub/sub do very similar things (Faye can use Redis as a back-end). Redis is appropriate for inter-process messaging within your server cluster (Redis client will get access to your whole Redis database).

Faye is more appropriate if you want to provide a publicly accessible pub/sub service over the web, for example to power the UI for your website. It only does pub/sub, not any other storage like Redis provides, and works over HTTP and WebSocket rather than over a raw TCP socket. It also allows for user-defined client- and server-side extensions to expand the messaging protocol it uses.

SocketStream is an application framework designed around websockets as primary data transfer medium. Faye is just a library for doing pub/sub messaging, that also happens to use bi-directional sockets. SocketStream may provide functionality similar to Faye, but its scope is much broader, covering a range of other concerns for application development.

Redis

Redis publish/subscribe is a very simple system for internal use in a server cluster - it requires an open connection to redis (unauthenticated and giving complete access to everything in redis).
