+Apache MINA SSHD is a 100% pure java library to support the SSH protocols on
both the client and server side. It does not
aim at being a replacement for the SSH client or SSH server from Unix
operating systems, but rather provides support for Java
based applications requiring SSH support.
+The library can leverage several I/O back-ends:
+
+* The default transport is built-in and uses Java's
`AsynchronousSocketChannel`s.
+* [Apache MINA](https://mina.apache.org), a scalable and high performance
asynchronous I/O library, can be used instead, or
+* the [Netty](https://netty.io) asynchronous event-driven network framework is
also supported.
