## Welcome
|
|
|
|
The ZeroMQ lightweight messaging kernel is a library which extends the
|
|
standard socket interfaces with features traditionally provided by
|
|
specialised messaging middleware products. ZeroMQ sockets provide an
|
|
abstraction of asynchronous message queues, multiple messaging patterns,
|
|
message filtering (subscriptions), seamless access to multiple transport
|
|
protocols and more.
