Can i get a full duplex connection between two clients with server as intermediary?

For Example:
Client 1 connect its socket to Client 2's Socket through internet for transmission of data in a single connection.

Solution 1

You gave the answer yourself, the WebSocket is the API that you would be using to allow the server to communicate to the client without having the client to send a new request to the server.

It would be a full-duplex communication mode because server and client both can communicate without having other party to ask for data from either side and can send the data to each other as they wish to. You can read more on this from Mozilla Developer Network[^] to understand the actual concept of this.

Can Websocket work with Java Client application?

Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan 17-Feb-15 9:07am

It would work with JavaScript, this API is for client-side. If you're developing the application using Java (as a server-side language) then you can learn for Java's WebSockets as seperately. JavaScript and Java are different.

Ok.If i'm creating a Websocket server in Java SE means,How can i deploy it to server?

Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan 17-Feb-15 10:41am

WebSocket in JavaScript cannot be. However, if you're using Java SE, then you can read these manuals to learn more on this: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/websocket/package-summary.html

Ok.Consider now i have a WebSocket Server in Java.

How can deploy it to server?
Do i need VPS?

You already have the source code written. Just upload the content of your website to some hosting provider. VPS, or a shared server what-so-ever can be used.

I think java websocket server can not support on normal shared server.
I need to get VPS and Install the JAVA to run the Websocket server.
Am i right?
