You can indeed implement a very simple message broker with a WebSocket server.
I would however use STOMP or MQTT over WebSocket with existing messages brokers so you don't reimplement the wheel.
I did reimplement the wheel many years ago and nowadays I prefer to use RabbitMQ or Mosquitto (over WebSocket).
- grebred 4y agoThen WebSocket becomes a broker proxy right?
- speedgoose 4y agoYes, though many brokers can support websocket directly so you can see it as some kind of transport layer and not a proxy as well.
