so what did you use ?

  Well the memory leaks and approach to fallback connections led to it being more sensible to roll our own. We've only needed to handle concurrent connections in the 1-10k range though. There are really better c++ and erlang implementations we've investigated but won't pull those off the shelf till needed. Obviously there's loads of great realtime-as-a-service offerings like Firebase and Pusher that make sense for a lot of use cases, just not ours. We were always uncomfortable with relying on a third party for a core aspect of infrastructure, and this acquisition introduces uncertainty that we don't have to worry about.

    I've not tried it yet, but Poxa [1] looks quite promising: it's an Elixir app that is supposedly compatible with Pusher libraries. [1] Poxa: https://github.com/edgurgel/poxa https://github.com/edgurgel/poxa
