# Spring Boot and Web Socket 

## About

Sample Chat Application using Spring Boot and WebSocket.

#### What is WebSocket

Like ``http``, ``websocket`` is also a communication protocol which provides bi-directional communication channel between a server and client. \

This is the main reason why websocket is prefered over Http where the client and server need to exchange information at high frequency and with lower latency.

#### STOMP

STOMP stands for ``Streaming Text Oriented Messaging Protocol``.

WebSocket is just a communication protocol. \

He doen't know ``How to send a message only to users who are subscribed to a particular topic, or how to send a message

to a particular user``. We need STOMP for these. \

Spring provides default support for it but you can choose any other messaging protocol such as RabbitMQ or ActiveMQ.
