Continuations to Continue
Jetty-6 Continuations introduced the concept of asynchronous servlets to provide scalability and quality of service to web 2.0 applications such as chat, collaborative editing, price publishing, as well as powering HTTP based frameworks like cometd, apache camel, openfire XMPP and flex BlazeDS. With the introduction of similar asynchronous features in Servlet-3.0, some have suggested that the Continuation API would be deprecated. Instead, the Continuation API has been updated to provide a simplified portability run asynchronously on any servlet 3.0 container as well as on Jetty (6,7 & 8). Continuations will work synchronously (blocking) on any 2.5 servlet container.
