Did the need for edge server arise from the fact the a service like https://aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/applicationloadbalancer/ https://aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/applicationloadb... didn't exist back then ?
- cyunker 10y agoWell we need edge servers to handle the persistent websocket connections which last through the life the player session.
- je42 10y agoyeah the ALB provides that feature as well. I just checked. it was released in Aug 2016. So clearly before that time your setup makes a lot of sense. I am wondering if the ALB would be the preferred method now, if you were to redo it ?
- michalptaszek 10y agoRight, ALB were introduced after we built RMS. We would have to re-evaluate the ALB stability/cost/scalability - but definitely something to consider.
