ruby/rails：Android 推送和聊天服务器

Question

• Why another push server? Google C2DM does not work well in some regions.
• How to create a push server using ruby/rails? Well, it's my real question. I've been googled for a few days.
• Options: IMPP(OpenFire), Juggernaut, Faye, AndroidPn. It leads me to confusion. My requirement is simple, light weight push service and light weight text chat. They're just small part of the project. Which one is better?

Answer 1

You should look at Pusher

Third-party JS-centric push service. I think it works with web socket (which I believe Android does not support), but you'll have to look at its compatibility.

I think this is what you need. I'll leave the details unless you want them!
