did you consider using AWS eventing in API Gateway https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/announcing-websocket-ap... ?

I have not used AWS and I am not sure if I understand the pricing structure, but wouldn't it cost like $30,000 per month if the server is running at 12k messages/second?

At this point I feel like that most AWS services are for marketing purposes. The type of people who would pay 30k a month for 12k msg/s are very few.

It's just there so you can awe developers at the breath of services AWS provides.
