An emergency-dispatch console for the municipality needs bidirectional, low-latency updates between browsers and the cloud backend as unit statuses change. Which integration mechanism best fits?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Dispatchers need a live two-way pipe, not a once-a-day email. WebSockets keep a connection open so the browser and backend can push updates both ways with low lag. That is the go-to pattern for interactive consoles like this.
Full Explanation
WebSockets provide full-duplex, low-latency channels between clients and servers, which suits interactive dashboards such as dispatch consoles. Email digests, blocking SOAP batches, and infrequent polling cannot deliver the same real-time bidirectional experience. Cloud+ integration objectives include selecting WebSockets when interactive browser updates are required.
