Hessian is a binary HTTP-based protocol originally developed by Caucho Technology, Inc. Hessian has a companion protocol, Burlap, which is XML-based. Both protocols were originally meant to be lightweight and "use their own serialization algorithms for primitive types, collections, and so on."[1] Both were created despite the existence of numerous RPC (remote procedure call) protocols, which yielded an innefficient increase in binary data size during connection to a Web service.[2] As the developers put it, "none met our application's needs."[3]
Hessian was built to be fast, support object serialization, and leave wire protocols invisible to developers.[2][4] Both Hessian and Burlap act as "ordinary Java objects" not requiring special classes to implement interfaces, following "design by interface" principles.[5]
Both Hessian and Burlap were originally implemented in Resin, Caucho's Java-based Web and application server.[3][6] Support for the protocols has also been built into the Spring Framework, an open-source application framework and "inversion of control" container for the Java platform.[7]
Adaptations
Although Hessian is primarily intended for Web services, it can be adapted for TCP traffic by using the HessianInput and HessianOutput classes in Caucho's Java implementation.[8]
