What is anycable-rails?
AnyCable for Ruby on Rails is an SDK that allows Rails applications to use AnyCable as a drop-in replacement for Action Cable. It enables reliable, scalable realtime communication over WebSockets and SSE by integrating with the language-agnostic AnyCable server. This solves the problem of handling high-volume realtime connections in Rails apps without rewriting existing Action Cable code.
Ruby on Rails developers building applications that require realtime features like live updates, chat, or notifications, especially those facing scalability limitations with Action Cable.
Developers choose AnyCable for Rails because it offers a seamless migration path from Action Cable with improved performance and scalability, leveraging a dedicated realtime server while maintaining full compatibility with Rails' realtime APIs.
