<h3 id="overview">An Overview of XMPP</h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
XMPP is the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol, a
|
||
|
|
set of open technologies for instant messaging, presence,
|
||
|
|
multi-party chat, voice and video calls, collaboration,
|
||
|
|
lightweight middleware, content syndication, and generalized
|
||
|
|
routing of XML data.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
XMPP was originally developed in the Jabber open-source
|
||
|
|
community to provide an open, decentralized alternative to
|
||
|
|
the closed instant messaging services at that time. XMPP
|
||
|
|
offers several key advantages over such services:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Open</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The XMPP protocols are free, open, public, and easily
|
||
|
|
understandable; in addition, multiple implementations exist
|
||
|
|
in the form of clients, servers, server components, and code
|
||
|
|
libraries.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Standard</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The <a href="http://ietf.org">Internet Engineering Task
|
||
|
|
Force (IETF)</a> has formalized the core XML streaming
|
||
|
|
protocols as an approved instant messaging and presence
|
||
|
|
technology. The XMPP specifications were published as
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/#3920">RFC 3920</a> and
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/#3921">RFC 3921</a> in 2004,
|
||
|
|
and the XMPP Standards Foundation continues to publish many
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/">XMPP Extension
|
||
|
|
Protocols</a>. In 2011 the core RFCs were revised, resulting
|
||
|
|
in the most up-to-date specifications (
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/#6120">RFC 6120</a>,
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/#6121">RFC 6121</a>, and
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/#7622">RFC 7622</a>).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Proven</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The first Jabber/XMPP technologies were developed by Jeremie
|
||
|
|
Miller in 1998 and are now quite stable; hundreds of
|
||
|
|
developers are working on these technologies, there are tens
|
||
|
|
of thousands of XMPP servers running on the Internet today,
|
||
|
|
and millions of people use XMPP for instant messaging
|
||
|
|
through various public services and XMPP deployments at
|
||
|
|
organizations worldwide.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Decentralized</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The architecture of the XMPP network is similar to email; as
|
||
|
|
a result, anyone can run their own XMPP server, enabling
|
||
|
|
individuals and organizations to take control of their
|
||
|
|
communications experience.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Secure</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Any XMPP server may be isolated from the public network
|
||
|
|
(e.g., on a company intranet) and robust security using SASL
|
||
|
|
and TLS has been built into the core
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/rfcs/">XMPP specifications</a>. In
|
||
|
|
addition, the XMPP developer community is actively working
|
||
|
|
on end-to-end encryption to raise the security bar even
|
||
|
|
further.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Extensible</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Using the power of XML, anyone can build custom
|
||
|
|
functionality on top of the core protocols; to maintain
|
||
|
|
interoperability, common extensions are published in the
|
||
|
|
<a href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/">XEP series</a>, but
|
||
|
|
such publication is not required and organizations can
|
||
|
|
maintain their own private extensions if so desired.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Flexible</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
XMPP applications beyond IM include network management,
|
||
|
|
content syndication, collaboration tools, file sharing,
|
||
|
|
gaming, remote systems monitoring, internet services,
|
||
|
|
lightweight middleware, cloud computing, and much more.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<h4>Diverse</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
A wide range of companies and open-source projects use XMPP
|
||
|
|
to build and deploy real-time applications and services; you
|
||
|
|
will never get “locked in” when you use XMPP technologies.

|

technologies, including links to specifications,

<h4 id="conclusion">Conclusion</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
XMPP in general is an open and standardized protocol for
|
||
|
|
real time communication.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Anyone can host their own server and communicate freely with
|
||
|
|
each other, just like with email and just like email the
|
||
|
|
used addresses are of the form “name@domain.tld”.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
People can use different apps and services, such as Monal,
|
||
|
|
from a single but also multiple accounts. This serves a
|
||
|
|
decentral and sovereign infrastructure and digital
|
||
|
|
communication on the internet but also offers many potential
|
||
|
|
for innovation.
