Reduced manual work and built reliable real-time collaboration with serverless messaging
I love Ably for its advanced pub/sub messaging capabilities, which help us with messaging Delta Compression, allowing us to send only changes from previous messages instead of entire payloads every time. For example, if I have to say 'hi', instead of sending the whole payload, it only sends the change in the current payload, reducing bandwidth consumption and enabling high-frequency data streaming. This major change has made our clients really happy as they receive notifications and messages without latency. Additionally, if a client goes offline, Ably stores messages in history for up to 72 hours, allowing clients to query history and catch up on missed events, ensuring complete stream continuity. It also supports multi-protocol, using WebSockets and gracefully falling back to server-sent events and long polling as needed, including support for MQTT and IoT devices along with pub/sub control for easy migration.I appreciate the serverless integration that has the integrated native web hook, instantly triggering serverless functions such as AWS Lambda and Azure Function when specific real-time events occur. It also allows Kafka Connector for seamless ingestion of messages from Kafka topics to stream them out to millions of users in milliseconds.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Ably's API integration is intuitive; it definitely improved our efficiency, and we saw faster user interaction and around a 20% reduction in latency during peak times, which improved user experience as well."
"My most-liked feature is its highly reliable real-time messaging capacity."
"We experience vast improvements across many areas with Ably; when users connect bank accounts, we previously had to poll repeatedly, which is now replaced by Ably's real-time infrastructure that maintains a persistent back-end connection, significantly reducing the need for infrastructure management and API load, resulting in average bank connection display times decreasing from eight to twelve seconds down to one to two seconds, and with persistent back-end connections reducing API calls, we achieve a lower operational load, seeing an impressive reduction of thirty thousand to forty thousand calls monthly."
"Ably has positively impacted our organization by providing a good return on investment by avoiding the labor cost of building and maintaining a custom WebSocket server."
"Ably has improved our organization by enhancing real-time communication capabilities and providing reliable data delivery."
"Ably has a big capacity to stream data all over the world, has higher reliability and a 99.99% uptime, offers robust security guarantees and ease of integration, and saved at least 80% of the cost that would have required more developers and more time for integration testing and development."
"What I appreciate most about Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) is that it is very lightweight, and its installation setup is quite easy, and in terms of stability, I find it amazing, with very low downtime compared to other container management systems and virtual machines, and it is user-friendly."
"Security features in Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) are very useful in protecting the containers and the particular images and host resources."
"Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) has positively impacted my organization because it enables me to test applications much more easily and provides an isolated environment with all dependencies installed, which has accelerated my development workflow."
"Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) positively impacts my organization by enabling us to scale up and deliver faster deployments across environments."
 

Cons

"Ably can be improved in several areas."
"It falls just short of a perfect ten only because full twenty-four-hour phone or live chat escalation is heavily gated behind their highest enterprise pricing tiers."
"Overall, Ably appears strong for managed real-time operations, but could improve areas such as pricing predictability."
"One thing I dislike about Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) is that sometimes if Kubernetes crashes, the basic understanding of Docker on CentOS 10 (x86_64 Docker) becomes tricky for new personnel, and I think the documentation is insufficient; newcomers need it to be more sophisticated and more informative."
"Security scanning and OS patching need improvement because we rely on base images and do not have sufficient time to investigate them while moving quickly through our processes."
"I have observed a few things that can be improved. We need to optimize the image size and the build time."
