In plain words
Building WebSocket in Apache Iggy with Io_uring and Completion Based IO is a technical implementation guide for developers working with Apache Iggy. It covers WebSocket construction using io_uring and completion-based IO patterns. This resource is designed for software engineers interested in building scalable, event-driven applications with high-performance input/output handling. The guide demonstrates practical approaches to WebSocket integration within the Iggy streaming platform architecture.

In our 0.5.0 release blog post , we announced that work was underway on a complete rewrite of Apache Iggy's core architecture using io_uring with a thread-per-core, shared nothing design. This architectural redesign aims to further improve performance, reduce tail latecies and lower resource usage by leveraging io_uring's completion based I/O model . As part of this rewrite, we migrated from Tokio to compio , a completion-based async runtime that allows us to better utilize io_uring capabilities. However, it also presents different challenges when integrating with the wider Rust ecosystem. We came across one such challenge when we needed to add WebSocket support to Iggy server.

JUring – Java bindings for io_uring file I/O2025 · github.com · ▲20Hi HN! For the past few weeks, I've been working on bringing io_uring to Java. It started as an experiment, but slowly it became more than just that, and now trying to turn it into a proper library. After hearing talks about virtual threads and io_urings performance I wanted to build something that was faster than Java provides out of the box. I ended up creating two APIs: - A direct one that closely mirrors io_uring's behavior - A blocking one built with Virtual Threads in mind for remote files. This is the link to the project if you are interested…
