About a week ago I wrote a blog article at work entitled “What is the real-time web?“. I’m seeing even more tweets and posts about the real-time web and I’d love to hear if other people agree with my opinion on what the real-time web is.

I work for Caplin Systems who have recently released Liberator FE which is the Free Edition of their real time Comet server product.
Liberator is the most performant and fully-featured server currently available for streaming real-time data to web pages. The technology behind many of the world’s leading financial trading portals, it is now available FREE for evaluation and non-commercial use.
In this post I will detail my experiences when installing Liberator FE on Windows with an aim to being able to create a RIA Client that consumes data from a Capin DataSource.
Liberator Free Edition comes with a comprehensive client library for integrating with Ajax or Flex, RIAs, a Java server library for connecting to sources of data and building application logic, and full documentation.
