[zeromq-dev] What C++ bindings to use ?

[Amr Ali]

It depends on your project requirements. If you are writing a rapidly evolving
backend and speed or efficiency is not a concern for you then you should
definitely go for a pythonic technology stack, which includes PyZMQ; a well
written and maintained language binding for 0MQ.

If however you are looking for a speedy and efficient component in your project
then C++/C++11 makes sense.

I'm the author and maintainer of Cloudless. Cloudless is not just a language
binding but also offers you facilities to build scalable backends such as
extensible devices that have ingress and egress points to support a
Shared-Nothing architecture (SN) without having to implement your own reactor
pattern or maintain I/O/Event loops. Cloudless is heavily documented (currently
missing use-cases but the examples folder contains some examples to illustrate
some functionality) and have high test coverage. You can check out the API
documentation at http://cloudless.io/docs
