Hessian

  • Hessian is a fast, compact, binary protocol that not only outperforms XML-based remoting
    protocols like SOAP and XML-RPC but also meets or exceeds the performance of other binary
    protocols like ORMI and Java JNI
  • Languages implementation includes: Java, Flash/Flex, Python, Ruby, and more.
  • Enterprise preferred for high performance remoting and serialization protocol.
  • Hessian is a simple, but powerful protocol that is able to do virtually everything other web services protocols can do without all the baggage.
