Question
App Platform Websockets & Elixir Clustering
I was looking at deploying an elixir app to App Platform but the app in question requires instances to communicate with each other to support realtime clients connected over websockets.
I have 3 questions…
- Are inbound websocket connections supported on App Platform, if so is there any timeouts or gotchas?
- Is there any service discovery (dns maybe) for a container to discover other instances of the same App running?
- Is there any private networking routes between containers of the same App so assuming 2 is possible, is it then possible to talk between instances of the same App?

Big +1 for this, it’s the feature I’m waiting to hear about before moving some apps over from Heroku.
