AnyCable

• Stream Updates to Your Users with LiteCable for Ruby on Rails
  4 projects | dev.to | 10 Jan 2024

  LiteCable is tailored for vertical scaling by a tight integration of components. If you extract maximum performance from the SQLite engine, the limits of this approach are pushed a lot further. Once you observe that your latencies start to explode, though, I would suggest researching options like AnyCable, which inherently provide better strategies for horizontal scaling.

• Show HN: AnyCable – real-time for Next.js, open source alternative to PaaS

• Deploy Anycable with MRSK

  Here we'll deploy Anycable wih MRSK.

• Using Tailscale on Lambda for a Live Development Proxy
  4 projects | dev.to | 3 Jun 2023

  So far, everything is working great with our new LambdaCable gem. Eventually it will be a drop-in adapter for ActionCable and join the ranks of other popular alternatives like AnyCable. To bring the project to completion faster, I needed feedback loops that were much faster than deploying code to the cloud. I needed a development proxy! One where my Rails application would receive events from both Lambda's Function URLs and the WebSocket events from API Gateway. Illustrated below with a demo video.

• AnyCable v1.3: embedded NATS, StatsD, and more

  AnyCable v1.3 has been just released. The major highlights are:

• Faster RuboCop runs for Rails apps
  4 projects | dev.to | 12 Apr 2022

  I've been using this technique for a long time for gems development—to speed up CI RuboCop runs (by installing only the linter dependencies). Here is my typical rubocop.gemfile:

• Any performance/memory issue with Ruby 3.x compared to 2.7?
  7 projects | /r/ruby | 30 Mar 2022

  It does, but the precompiled binaries are only for < 3.1: https://rubygems.org/gems/grpc/versions/1.43.1-x86-linux

• Action cable or AJAX? Performance and solution - what to choose?
  1 project | /r/rails | 26 Mar 2022

  Action cable is probably what you're looking for. If you start having performance issues, AnyCable is a more performatic option that requires almost no changes in your ruby code.

• Kubing Rails: stressless Kubernetes deployments with Kuby
  2 projects | /r/ruby | 30 Nov 2021

  I decided to give it a try for the AnyCable demo application, which requires deploying not only a Rails app, but also additional services for AnyCable.

• Async Ruby
  3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Oct 2021

  I think what's being talked about here is the back end implementation for ActionCable. By default it uses ruby threads to push over open web sockets. There's at least one production quality drop in implementation (https://anycable.io/) that address the default scalability issues you'll have with ActionCable. The async support would seem to allow one to go much further with default rails before needing to move to something more performant.
