[rabbitmq-discuss] Why do we need rabbitmq-web-stomp and why not rabitmq-web-amqp (over websockets)?

Thu Jul 26 21:34:42 BST 2012

Hi -
    I'm reading about the rabbitmq-web-stomp plugin. It seems like a very 
cool idea - STOMP over Websockets connecting to AMQP backend.

My questions: 

   1. can we do AMQP over websockets directly and 
   2. If so, why do we need STOMP? 
   3. Is there any particular advantage of using STOMP? 
   4. Are there performance implications in the STOM<>AMQP translation?

Thanks,
PC
