        Gaffer is a set of Python modules and tools to easily maintain and
        interact with your applications or jobs launched on different machines over
        HTTP and websockets.
        
        It promotes distributed and decentralized topologies without single points of
        failure, enabling fault tolerance and high availability.

        - Websockets and [SOCKJS](http://sockjs.org) support to interact with a gaffer node from any browser or SOCKJS client.
        - Framework to manage and interact your applications and jobs on
        - differerent machines
        - Server and command-line tools to manage and interract with your processes
        - manages topology information. Clients query gaffer_lookupd to discover  gaffer nodes for a specific job or application.
        - Possibility to interact with STDIO and PIPES to interact with your
         applications and processes
        - Subscribe to process statistics per process or process templates and get them in quasi RT.
        - Procfile applications support but also JSON config support.
