reliable multicast in C#

what are my options for reliable multicast in c# /.Net 3.5?

I don’t want to use MSMQ.

I am open to commercial as well as open source options.

Thanks

The best one I've used, after evaluating a bunch was Mesongo RMF - it had a really clean API and good monitoring tools.

The pragmatic variant, PGM, it's in your Windows image, look for it on say server 2003, even XP and friends.. there are socket options for it (Rdm or similar).

http://www.29west.com/ claims to be the lowest latency reliable multicast solution available. I have not verified this claim, but in talking to them, it seems that their biggest competition is not some other vendor, but in house developemnt. Why not just set up your own multicast group, and use it directly? Chapter 21 of "Unix Network Programming Volume 1" describes how to do this.

ActiveMQ is an excellent product by the Apache organization. There's bindings for lots of languages, including C#.

In the commercial world Tibco EMS is a good choice. Its got bindings for C# and Java.
