0MQ in a Hundered Words
- (abridged version, original available in the Guide)
- 0MQ looks like an embeddable networking library but acts like a concurrency framework.
- It gives you sockets that carry atomic messages across various transports like in-process, inter-process, TCP, and multicast.
- You can connect sockets N-to-N with patterns like fanout, pub-sub, task distribution, and request-reply.
