I’ve been pondering for a while on how to showcase some replay functionality in our AMPS product in a way that’s general enough that everyone understands the concept, yet provides a solution metaphor that easily translates into other domains. Ideally, the data would be from some real-world system, where time-series,...

Does your network bandwidth ever feel like this congested freeway? Do you ever have a subscription that gets so many messages that it really cannot process them all? If you answered yes, why haven’t you tried using conflated subscriptions? Conflated subscriptions help to reduce the bandwidth for a subscription and...

From Day-1, we’ve built AMPS to be content aware, yet message-type agnostic. As such, we’re often asked which message-type we think is best. The best message type, in most situations, is dependent on the use-case. In this article, we drill-down into what factors you should consider when selecting a message...
