AMI Integration 2: Realtime Messages

This first tutorial in the series will cover what AMI Realtime messages are, their structure, how they work and the different types available. Realtime messages can be sent and received in any programming language, in this tutorial we will use C++. We will start by connecting to the AMIs realtime messages port, 3289, and logging in. Data that is sent via realtime messages will be stored in AMI DB with the schema being automatically detected and tables created as necessary. We will generate some stock price data, send it to AMI using Realtime Messages and visualize it using a Realtime Table. Commands can be created that are accessible to users via right click context menus in the UI. We will create and test a command, making use of it in AMI Web and returning data from the UI back to our client application.
