| We are using MINA at a telco to route low level protocol packets |
| to a third party. We already had a SOAP and also a CORBA interface |
| but for speed purposes we are trying out a lower level protocol and |
| we needed a gateway of sorts to route messages between our cluster of |
| servers and the third party's servers. |

| I had been planning on using NIO and some aspects of |
| <a href="http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~mdw/proj/seda/">SEDA</a> but |
| finding MINA was a real treat as it saved a lot of time, is well |
| written and gets more testing than our in house QA would be able to |
| cover. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The speed and stability of our app on top of MINA has been excellent. |

| We use MINA to communicate with |
| <a href="http://www.banksys.com/">Banksys</a> 'point of sale' |
| terminals (Visa, Mastercard...) for technical management operations. |
| (software upgrade, remote monitoring, log transfer...) |

| So far, MINA has worked really well for us. We used |
| <a href="http://gleamynode.net/dev/tl-netty2/docs/">Netty2</a>, |
| and clearly saw the improvements in MINA. I like the MINA API |
| more. MINA really makes it easier to write applications using NIO. |

| <blockquote> |
| We are using it for the network layer of |
| <a href="http://www.osflash.org/red5">Red5</a>, an open source flash |
| server. At the moment we have RTMP and AMF working and hope to add |
| more protocols in the future. MINA's design and ease of use has |
| helped us get a prototype up and running quickly. |

| <blockquote> |
| What a fantastic API! Definately the best I've seen since |
| <a href="http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/classes/EDU/oswego/cs/dl/util/concurrent/intro.html">Doug Lea's Concurrency API</a>. |

| <blockquote> |
| We are using MINA to build the network layer of our multiplayer |
| game server at <a href="http://ludonet.leonardo.it/">Leonardo.it</a>. |
| Using MINA, we implemented different protocols in a few days; |
| Game and HTTP tunneling. In the past, we used NIO, and the advantage |
| of using MINA is evident; the MINA API is elegant and very simple to |
| use. Last, but not least, MINA have a really responsive support. |

| <blockquote> |
| I'm using MINA for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) |
| embedded application. It's used for several tasks; connecting |
| supervision clients to the server, interaction of the server with |
| different hardware (other SCADA systems, media stream matrix, |
| programmable automaton, remote data aquisition systems), custom |
| replication protocols for fail-over service. I found MINA when I |
| started implementation using NIO and it was a great time saver. |
| You can switch from RS232 to TCP/IP and add SSL connectivity easly. |
| The stability and the support is really great. The code and the |
| design are simple and efficient, so you can easly implement high |
| quality protocol logic without bothering with all the NIO quirks. |
| I didn't really tested the maximum performance you can get out of |
| MINA, but all I can say is that MINA is running 24/7 with an amazing |
| stability and I'm not afraid of using it in harsh evironement. |
