Get fine-grained access control of your server with AblyD

What's this blog post about?

Websocketd is a tool that allows wrapping around a process and making stdin and stdout available with WebSockets by hosting a WebSocket server externally. It can be extended using Ably, a platform for communication between systems via a Pub/Sub system, to add features such as in-built health information on each process and server, many-to-many communication for each process, authentication mechanisms, and more. By using websocketd with Ably, users can start up processes whenever needed and have any statistics, errors, or information returned over WebSockets.
