jabberd 2.x project is the next generation of the jabberd project.
It has been rewritten from the ground up to be scalable, architecturally sound and to support the latest XMPP Extension Protocols coming out of the XSF.
Please note: jabberd 2 is not a newer version of jabberd 1.4, but a completely different project.
Featuring
- stability – it may not be the flashiest stallion around, but it is a good'ol donkey that just gets the job done; without drama
- low on resources – written in neat, effective C; able to run on your Raspberry Pi or OpenWRT router
- extensibility – jabberd server is modular and very easy to extend with your own modules
- distributed – you may run multiple instances of jabberd component processes to distribute load across machines

Why XMPP?
Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol is an IETF accepted open Internet Standard for XML based communications technology. It has been formalized under RFC 3920 and RFC 3921.
XMPP was designed for real-time communication, which powers a wide range of applications including instant messaging, presence, media negotiation, whiteboarding, collaboration, lightweight middleware, content syndication, EDI, RPC and more.
