This document summarizes a presentation about ASP.NET SignalR, a framework for adding real-time web functionality to applications. The presentation discusses event-driven architecture and how SignalR supports it. It also covers scaling out SignalR applications across multiple servers and improving performance. The presenter is identified as Alessandro Melchiori, a software architect, and demos of SignalR functionality are included.

8. SignalR core architecture: pub/sub
publisher
message bus
message cache
client
client
client
client

9. Pattern 1. Server broadcast
•
Low rate broadcast of the same payload to all clients
•
One message bus send maps to many users (fan out)
•
More clients don’t increase message bus traffic

10. Pattern 2. Server push
•
Low rate broadcast of the unique payload to each client
•
One message bus send maps to one user (no fan out)
•
More clients means more message bus traffic

11. Pattern 3. User event driven
•
Broadcast on client actions
•
One message bus send maps to many users (fan out)
•
More clients means more message bus traffic

12. Pattern 4. High frequency real-time
•
Fixed high rate broadcast from servers and clients
•
One message bus send maps to one user (no fan out)
•
More clients means more message bus traffic

14. Remember…
Have your app do as little as possible. If
you do nothing, you can scale infinitely.

15. Scale-out issues: message delivery

16. Scale-out issues: client transience
server 1
server 2

17. Scale-out issues: client distribution
server 1
server 2

18. Scale-out SignalR
•
SQL Server, Redis & Windows Azure Service Bus
•
Great for the server broadcast load pattern
•
Limited for other scenarios
 Every message goes to every server, so as traffic increases you’re limited by
how fast any one web server can pull messages off of the backplane
Backplanes are *much* slower
than single-server performance

19. Scale-out provider architecture
backplane
web nodes
clients
