Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and
|
|
tools that power FriendFeed. The FriendFeed application is written using a web
|
|
framework that looks a bit like web.py or Google's webapp, but with additional
|
|
tools and optimizations to take advantage of the underlying non-blocking
|
|
infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks (and
|
|
certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and reasonably
|
|
fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll or kqueue, it can handle
|
|
thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is ideal for
|
|
real-time web services. We built the web server specifically to handle
|
|
FriendFeed's real-time features - every active user of FriendFeed maintains an
|
|
open connection to the FriendFeed servers.
