Facebook open sourced Tornado, a real-time web framework for Python, developed by FriendFeed; http://j.mp/2XZHl2
Facebook: “Real-time updates have become an important aspect of the social Web that make it easier to share with friends. In March, we introduced a real-time News Feed to make the stream as relevant and engaging as possible for users. Similarly, FriendFeed, which we recently acquired, built their entire site to support real-time updates. It hasn’t been easy to build and scale these features, so today we’re open-sourcing a core piece of infrastructure called Tornado, which was originally developed by the FriendFeed team.”
TC: “When Facebook acquired FriendFeed last month, everyone knew it was getting some pretty impressive technology along with the obvious talent in the company. What people probably didn’t expect is that Facebook would open source a portion of it. But that’s what they’re doing today with the release of Tornado, a real-time web framework for Python, onto the web.”
Winer: “I also reminded people that when cool technologies are shipping everywhere it’s not a time of death it’s a time of life, as long as we have the web to connect our work, there’s nothing exclusive about it. The engineers don’t think we’re wiping each other out, only the pundits and the hangers-on do.”
RWW: “Developers will now be able to tap into one of the core infrastructure pieces that made FriendFeed tick so well. While other services (like Twitter) tend to have a lot of trouble to scale up when they grow, FriendFeed never ran into these problems and Tornado was surely one of the main reasons why the site managed to stay up and running even when demand spiked during major events.”
