Agree with you. If the audience is developers, give it to us in black in white instead of some new jargon and marketing blah.

I looked through several pages (waste of time) and I still can't figure out how this is real time without websockets, polling, server side events. No way I would use this service if they don't know who their audience is.

Yep the missing part of the description is 'server-to-server', or 'client-with-a-listen-port (i.e. not a browser) to server'.

Unfortunately a lot of us developers see the term REST API and think a-ha, this is something I can consume in my browser. This isn't that, so confusion ensues.
