I am looking at Jabber as a transport for a ciritical business application.
At the moment we use TCP sockets to send and receive binary data between multiple clients (concurrently using a queue) and a server. This allows us to be certain that a data stream was received in it's entirety, in it's correct order, and was processed by the server and an acknowledgement sent back.
My question: is Jabber capable of doing the same thing? It appears to just be sending data messages backwards and forwards - does this not mean that you cannot ensure that the data was sent in it's entirety, in the correct order and with the acknowledgement received (and also not clash with other clients data being sent concurrently)?
