Thanks ddoolin. I am not sure which company you are, but I appreciate your comments and even more happy to hear you feel we're doing a fantastic job! You've sort of encapsulated why we exist: we know software engineers can build and run all sorts of things on their own i.e. we're not the only option from open source solutions to custom builds. However, we built Ably to be the easiest, most scalable, and reliable realtime option which for developers that removes complexity and helps them manage costs as they grow (pay for what you use).
