Every rule whose selector covers this component's kind or its category. Whether a rule fires depends on the design: its properties, its edges and its groups.
When a gateway holding millions of sockets restarts, every client reconnects at once and the gateway asks the coordination service about each of them. Without a stampede guard that lookup storm takes the coordination service down too.
- — all of these hold:
- — the node has at least one synchronous outgoing edge to a coordination-service
- — the node's `stampedeGuard` is false
With heavy-tail traffic a few channels carry most of the load. Assigning channels at random lands those hot channels on arbitrary hosts, and every tenant sharing a host suffers for it.
- — all of these hold:
- — the node's `channelAssignment` is "random"
- — the design requirement `traffic.skew` is "heavy-tail"
Scaling a gateway down kills every live WebSocket on the removed instance at once. Without a drain step those clients all reconnect together.
- — all of these hold:
- — the node's `autoscaling` is true
- — the node's `drainOnScaleIn` is false
