Finally, we’ve named our new open source message queue framework “dropr”.
Why? When Boris was writing the client angel script he somehow named it “dropr”. As we neither got better suggestions nor had any other idea we just decided for this name. Actually the name is a little bit fun because all those stupidR startupRs. But it’s nice and somehow our framework drops message into queues :)
If you’re using google to search for it, it’s already the first result.
So have a look at https://www.dropr.org/. We’re just writing a little installation manual about setting up the pre-release of our framework. We’ll keep you up-to-date on this blog, so stay tuned.

Some simple real-life example would be very useful ;)

Hi Alexey,
I guess you mean a use-case. Think of a distributed architecture with servers all over the world. You can’t rely on synchronous webservice calls if you want to synchronize data of two servers. I’m sorry there is no more documentation at this stage of the project because it’s in an early state :)
