What you guys are doing with fan out is pretty great - definitely some similarities. Love your work.

Receiving socket events and then POSTing to your endpoint.

What use cases are you imagining?

Handling of connections in either direction.

Our company built a service that is able to receive WebSocket connections and send the activity to a HTTP backend. So this use case I'm familiar with and it sounds like you're doing something similar.

A service that could make outbound WebSocket connections on behalf of a FaaS app is something I think about too. I'm not sure if that exists yet.

I have that case covered as well. When I post to your backend, whatever you respond with, I send back to the socket for you.
