Could we replace apache mina with netty in openfire . If that is possible , how could we achieve this ?

2

Not easily, but why would you want to do this? Of course, with time and money, anything is possible! :slight_smile:

Netty is more clean than apache mina and performance is better. Also mina is buggy as it disconnects clients suddenly without any reason.

4

That’s my impression too, but somebody would have to do the work / somebody would have to pay for the work to be done. Are you in the position to do either of those?

For posterity: Netty replaced Apache MINA in Openfire 4.8.0. See [OF-2559] - Ignite Realtime Jira for details.
