This is unsurprising but also really incredible to actually see. I was first struck by how smooth it runs through all those notifications. I wonder how real time those notifications are. Are the ones coming in now for content created an hour ago?
I'm really curious what a system designed to push that much info out all over the place looks like. Where can I learn more about this?
- dnate 11y agoI developed for an app with 1-2 Million daily active users and we discussed several ways to do this. In the end we used AWS so it came down to having a bunch of workers send SNS messages to amazon. As with almost everything, the internet runs on AWS.
- conradev 11y agoYou can also have a bunch of workers with persistent APNS connections open, doing the same thing, but without AWS. Last I checked, SNS had a few second delay for sending push notifications.
