What is casual-middleware?

In general terms casual is a distributed application server. A platform to build applications on top of, that can interact with each other in a distributed manner, with or without transactional context. Users build servers that advertise arbitrary named services. Servers are deployed in a domain. Domains can be connected with each other, on different machines, in arbitrary topologies. A server is just an executable with an entry point for each advertised service. A server is scaled by spawning processes of the executable. Hence, servers can be dynamically scaled to meet load requirements. Resources such as databases can also be associated with a server. A service can call other services, and casual will find where these services reside in the topology. casual provides a queue implementation together with queue-to-service and queue-to-queue forward functionality.
