Revision as of 15:50, 16 June 2008 by Damiens.rf (talk | contribs) (Reverted 1 edit by BorisFromStockdale identified as vandalism to last revision by Toddst1. (TW))(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)In web development, Comet is a neologism which describes a set of techniques that use Push technology to enable low-latency, event-driven communication between a server and a web browser. Like DHTML and Ajax, Comet is not a technology in itself, but a term that refers to the use of a group of technologies as applied to Ajax-like Web applications.
Although the term was coined in a March 2006 blog post by Alex Russell, the concept is several years older and has been known by various names, including Ajax Push, Reverse Ajax, JSONRequest Duplex, HTTP server push, and HTTP streaming, among others.
