5the reason people like to ask this question is that it breaks the web paradigm of request and response. But really websockets has been a thing for a while now and anyone who has played a multiplayer game in the last 20 years is unsurprised that you can see what others are doing to a documentEwan– Ewan2021-09-13 17:26:31 +00:00Commented Sep 13, 2021 at 17:26

@DanWilson Could you please elaborate? How would those messages be partitioned, and how would the hub be scaled between multiple nodes?sdds– sdds2021-09-13 20:41:03 +00:00Commented Sep 13, 2021 at 20:41

@Ewan My question is not whether it's technically possible, how to do it quickly and efficiently at scale, because for only thousands of concurrent users and hundreds of documents this is a no-problem. Could you elaborate on your comment?sdds– sdds2021-09-14 06:27:40 +00:00Commented Sep 14, 2021 at 6:27

"Running the changes through a single message queue and processing it on each node to notify users connected to node" Why a single queue and not a topic per document?JimmyJames– JimmyJames2021-09-14 15:54:57 +00:00Commented Sep 14, 2021 at 15:54

@sdds when modern games easily handle 64 players all jumping around and shooting each other in real time with millisecond response times, why is have doc edits for 100 people and sub second response times considered a problem? Your naive approach with a queue and web-sockets is pretty much going to workEwan– Ewan2021-09-14 17:12:10 +00:00Commented Sep 14, 2021 at 17:12

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
