- = Ranch
- Ranch is a socket acceptor pool for TCP protocols.
- == Goals
- Ranch aims to provide everything you need to accept TCP connections with
- a *small* code base and *low latency* while being easy to use directly
- as an application or to *embed* into your own.
- Ranch provides a *modular* design, letting you choose which transport
- and protocol are going to be used for a particular listener. Listeners
- accept and manage connections on one port, and include facilities to
- limit the number of *concurrent* connections. Connections are sorted
- into *pools*, each pool having a different configurable limit.
- Ranch also allows you to *upgrade* the acceptor pool without having
- to close any of the currently opened sockets.
