Curious how teams here approached realtime infra.

I'm building FluxyChat as a smaller/self-hostable alternative to managed realtime vendors.

Stack is:

• Workers

• Durable Objects

• D1

Main idea:

one Durable Object per room

Question for B2B SaaS teams:

for moderate message volume, did edge/self-hosted realtime actually simplify your:

• costs?

• compliance?

• architecture?

Or did it become engineering overhead compared to Pusher/Ably/etc?

Mostly collecting experiences and tradeoffs.
