Not on the current edition
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar

Pushpin is a reverse proxy that acts as an intermediary between clients and back-end servers handling long-lived connections, such as WebSockets and Server-Sent Events. It provides a way to terminate long-lived connections from clients and means the rest of the system can be abstracted from this complexity. It effectively manages a large number of persistent connections and automatically distributes them across multiple back-end servers, optimizing performance and reliability. Our experience using this for real-time communication with mobile devices using WebSockets has been good, and we've been able to scale it horizontally for millions of devices.
