I'll add my approval here. Aeron is fantastic, exactly what you need when building a fast messaging infra. Reliable multicast is a really massive deal.

In a previous role I tried reliable multicast via ZeroMQ's support for PGM and it was a fucking disaster.

Aeron does indeed actually work.

zmq is a challenge to get to work for sure. It's super low level.
