All swarm clients, adapters for existing applications, service providers,etc are called Nodes. Any software entity that can be seen as having a message queue is a Node. A Node is talking to another Node by sending a swarm (message) in another's node queue.
We have 2 types of nodes:
- Adapters: server side nodes that provide some services (API) or provide some API for an existing application or system (ERP, CRM, etc)
- Clients. All swarming clients are getting connected to SwarmESB using sockets. We have now 2 possible clients: Action Script (Flex) Clients (see https://github.com/salboaie/FlexSwarm) and Java Script (node.js) clients (see our test cases). We are working to introduce support for web sockets too.
