JSON compiler

The middleware is bound to Jackson JSON due to Spring.
In many other projects we use json-simple from Google which is very lightweight but less powerful.
You should which one is matching your needs best.

Serialization

We need JSON for serialization and deserialization (e.g. for ZeroMQ), in order to have the data human-readable.
Each component (backend component) can either implement it on their own or let Jackson JSON do its magic.

TODO

show how to serialize via Jackson JSON
benchmark the two methods (manual via Streaming API vs. automated via Jackson)
