how does strongloop supervisor handle websocket connections?
I have a node app that I connect to from a browser using WebSockets. If I run this app under a supervisor ( slc run --cluster cpu myapp.js ), will a websocket connection be always forwarded to the same worker once established? Or will the supervisor do some sort of load balancing when forwarding messages send to this connection? strong-supervisor does absolutely no load balancing or clustering on its own: it auto-starts and configures node cluster ( http://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html ) Node cluster distributes connections at the TCP level, it knows nothing about the protocols running over them
