(registered 2014-11-10, last updated 2014-11-10) MIME media type name : Application MIME subtype name : Vendor Tree - vnd.apache.thrift.compact Required parameters : none Optional parameters : none Encoding considerations : binary Security considerations : Apache Thrift does not enforce a security mechanism. Users define security features at application or transport level. The data carried by Apache Thrift is essentially arbitrary, and can include active or executable content. Apache Thrift does not provide or enforce a security mechanism, so appropriate mechanisms must be implemented at the application or transport level. Interoperability considerations : Today only x-thrift is used and we have different protocols. The endpoints need to know what protocol is used and the Content-Type within the HTTP Headers is only informal. We want to fix this with proper Content-Types. That's why we do the registration here and adopt it on Apache Thrift afterwards. Published specification : http://thrift.apache.org Applications which use this media : Users do specify their own data structures and services via an interface description language (IDL) to communicate fast across languages and platforms.
