Or, if you’re building for clients with a traditional “enterprise” and “secure” IT infrastructure: add refresh buttons and call it a day. If there’s one thing in my experience that consistently fails in these environments and cannot be fixed due to endless red tape, it’s trying to make real-time work for these type of clients.

Jetty/CometD will fall back to long polling if other transports are not available.

Honestly, all the techniques for this stuff have their problems, including the refresh button.

True, though when carefully implemented it’s the most reliable option I guess.

My browser has a refresh button. Alas your application likely breaks when I use it.

In this threads context of sending specific application data from the server, I don't think this will happen.

Not entirely sure why it would break…?
