Ah, used to be an Enterprise only feature. We have access to that, but didn't realise it's now available to Business. Perhaps time for them to consider offering it more widely!

We at Ably Realtime have a largely remote engineering team. I’ve been searching for a good remote recruiter for some time now and not come across one. Unfortunately I think it’s just largely easier for recruiters to focus on local markets,

Being part of a team who is designing and running a globally distributed system has been the best 5 years of my 20 year tech career. Things go wrong sure, and it’s hard, but is crazy rewarding and intellectually challenging in all the right

Fascinating and brilliant article! We have a similar approach to health in our distributed messaging platform in that during situations where there are capacity problems, we ensure existing connections and requests continue to get serviced,

I'm excited by the possibilities. Interesting to see the different approaches different vendors are taking in this regard i.e. bundle in serverless functionality or integrate with serverless. APIs will of course always win out :) Discl
