Stream are the #1 chat API for custom messaging apps and started off building activity feeds and slowly started introducing chat messaging API’s which feeds large-volumes of their traffic. Jeroen and Alexei took us on a journey to understand some of the challenges around latency, scalability and mobile performance.
