The longest running XMPP service

I wonder what is the longest running XMPP service without a restart.

I watch a few servers running Tigase but then I restart them from time to time for software update with new features or bug fixes.

One of them is im.flosoft.biz which runs on quite old Celeron 1.33GHz machine with 200MB memory. Serves approximately 800 online users and works well for 75 days already without a restart. This is a development version of the Tigase 5.1.0 branch but indeed, Florian pushes me to release it as another stable version.

I have found however an absolute winner in this 'competition'. The last time I checked it earlier today the Tigase uptime time was: 657 days, 6 hours, 53 mins, 21 secs. This is a service running on MS Windows machine for online gaming website and most of the user connections are web clients connecting via Bosh. It is still running and working well!

I have also received a few other reports from people successfully running Tigase, as they say for 2 years without restart. If you have any specific data, number of days, the software version, please add a comment to this article. I would like to hear about your experience with long-running Tigase server.

Is there any ongoing effort to implement an Extended Disco Info Results for MUC rooms. I am interested in exposing a status page that displays the current opened rooms and the number of participants among other information.

Clustering for XMPP as a broadcast medium

Hi,

The scenario I'm looking at for Tigase is for millions of clients, which are mostly idle. The clients will never talk to each other. At rare (but important) times, a component will want to send a message to a specific client and get a response. Basically, I'm very interested in presence but not interested at all in client-to-client communication.

How to configure XMPP to allow all logged in user to see each other and chat with each other?

Hello guys,
I am new to XMPP.

My usecase:
All anonymous users, logged in users (In future, website visitors) will be able to see other anonymous, logged-in users. And they can initiate a private chat (one-to-one) with any of them.

So, I am able to logged in as Anonymous user, but I am not able to see other Anon / Logged in users (using Roster), because they are not in anonymous user's roster.

So, What should be configuration OR custom=component/code to to achieve this usecase?
Do I need to create server component? Any hint? OR
It can be done using proper configuration?

Cheers
