Aeron Cookbook

Since 2018, I’ve been working on financial marketplaces using Aeron and Aeron Cluster. Aeron is great for efficient UDP and IPC messaging, but it can be tricky for both newbies and intermediate users. I first shared notes on Aeron on this site while I was learning the ropes.

In 2020, I decided to put all these notes together in a dedicated platform called Aeron Cookbook, which turned into a beginners guide for Aeron and Aeron Cluster, packed with over 100 pages of content. During this period, Aeron started to gain popularity and the community began to grow.

Fast forward to 2022, Real Logic was acquired by Adaptive Financial Consulting, which led to talks about the best way to support the community. In 2023, Adaptive took charge of the Aeron Cookbook and merged it into the official docs for Aeron and Aeron Cluster. Once the Aeron Cookbook was merged, I took a step back and focused on other projects.
