> when we realized that it wasn't going to happen that we could our streaming data with Pluto notebooks on the web

It sounds like the issue is probably unrelated to using Pluto, and likely more to do with the streaming libraries used and memory management - but that's just a guess based on the minimal info here. When you say it couldn't handle streaming data, what issues did you have? By "streaming data with Pluto notebooks on the web" do you mean PlutoSliderServer or something else?

FWIW, Fons and co are very responsive to user issues (for eg. on the Zulip pluto channel [1]), so if you haven't tried that already, I'd recommend that. Similarly with Stipple, I believe they're trying to build a company out of it, so they'll probably be very receptive to business use cases and making them work.

Fons IS the person that informed me that we couldn't deploy our app using Pluto PlutoHooks PlutoSlider. The issue is that we need to have people able to go to a web page and have their own view of the notebook.

On the Stipple front it's a pacing issue, we think. The developers have been WONDERFULLY helpful and improved our code tremendously. GENIE is a great solution and I am sure that they will be successful. I believe they WILL produce a MWE of this task and we'll certainly look to see if we can make it work. Right now we can't as some of our lab equipment and financial systems generate sub 0.5 sec data stream.
