Hi! I have a legacy service sending data (well, messages to be delivered to the client) through a TCP socket. I need to deliver those messages to the browser, likely through periodical ajax updates (I''ll adapt the frequency between visual comfort and server load). I''d be interested to hear from people who have implemented something similar already. I have various roads in minds, like: - a stateful ruby app doing the polling, and exposing data through dRB - same app, but storing the messages in a database queue (AR) - yet same app, but relying on ruby spread or another messaging system to have the messages delivered (btw, did you notice I didn''t even mention the word ''container'' ? :-) What do you think ?
