Google returns:
- Netty (the ancestor of MINA) and Grizzly for ‘NIO framework‘
- MINA for ‘network application framework‘
- None of the above for ‘server framework’ or ‘client framework’
People sometimes come to me and say it was pretty difficult for them to discover MINA. Should I learn SEO or something like that? 😀
I believe MINA has the most active community comparing to the other Java network application frameworks though, and that’s what I’m proud of about MINA.

Hi Trustin,
I was wondering what the order was with Netty and Mina. It seems to me you started off doing Netty, this evolved into Mina, and then have you gone back to Netty now?
http://jboss.org/netty Netty seems like an easier-to-use version of Mina (not to mention the benchmark performance articles on the Netty site that point to out outperforming Mina on some tests.
I was hoping you’d be able to clear this up for me?
Thanks in advance,

Hi James,
You guessed it right. I’m back to Netty again since I left the MINA project about 2~3 years ago. Netty is a rewrite based on my experience on Netty 1/2 and MINA 1/2.
HTH,
Trustin
