Following the recent surge of interest in Comet technology, Caplin Systems has decided to release a free edition of its Liberator Comet platform. The free edition, called Liberator FE, includes a high-performance Comet server, a JavaScript client library, and a Java server integration library.

Caplin Liberator is used worldwide by many of the world’s top banks for streaming market data and trading. The free edition can be used for non-commercial applications and for evaluation.

Caplin has decided to share its technology to help the development of the Comet community and share its knowledge in this area.

The free edition of Liberator can be downloaded from http://www.freeliberator.com and comes complete with a set of examples and a tutorial. Try it out and let us know what you think via the forum.
