BeetleX is a high-performance .NET socket communication library supporting TCP, TLS, HTTP, HTTPS, WebSocket, MQTT, RPC, and Redis protocols with custom protocol extension. It provides async non-blocking I/O built on SocketAsyncEventArgs and solutions for handling very large numbers of concurrent connections.

Use cases

• build a high-performance tcp server in dotnet
• serve http and websocket traffic from a custom dotnet server
• implement an rpc server over tcp in c#
• build an mqtt broker or client in dotnet
• handle one million concurrent socket connections
• create a custom binary protocol server with tls support

When to choose

• you need fine-grained, high-performance socket control in .NET beyond what built-in HttpListener or Kestrel abstractions offer
• you want a single library covering tcp, websocket, mqtt, and rpc protocols
• you need to support extremely large connection counts with non-blocking I/O

When to avoid

• you just need a standard web api - ASP.NET Core is more mainstream and better supported
• your team prefers batteries-included frameworks with large ecosystems over lower-level components
• you need guaranteed long-term maintenance - the project is smaller and community-driven
