Which approach PokeIn uses?
PokeIn uses "hybrid" long polling approach in addition to own Websocket server. Actually, we don't just implement an ordinary technology with a name, we add some intelligence on it. "Hybrid" long polling approach means; (on our side)
-
PokeIn provides a unique "event" ordering technology. Moreover, with this technology you can create every type of "ajax" based application without dealing with lots of ordering problems.
- PokeIn guarantees the client object - server thread match
-
PokeIn watches the pressure on the application and decides to the client connection renewal rates to help your server side resource efficiency
-
PokeIn supports static resource management that solves many applications' performance issues.
-
Most of the server push solutions in market does not provide connection state information and this is the very painful stuff to implement. Also, knowing the state of user is very important and nice to have! So, a PokeIn powered web application knows when a client is disconnected.
-
PokeIn checks your user's browser for 'proper' Websocket support and uses it.
- PokeIn lets you call the methods from both sides instead transferring some basic text messages.
