Package org.cumulus4j.store.crypto.keymanager.messagebroker Description

Broker transmitting messages between application-server and key-manager.

As documented in Deployment scenarios, TCP connections are always established from the key-manager (i.e. client or key-server) to the application server. Since this means that the key-exchange-request-response-cycle works opposite the HTTP-request-response-cycle, we need the MessageBroker.
