Modern applications are distributed systems. Application engineers have been thrown into the world of distributed systems head first, whether they realize it or not. They have to wrangle state living across multiple clients, servers, AI services, object stores, and databases.

Good abstractions are the enemy of complexity. Developing distributed applications is notoriously complex, in part because traditional stateless infrastructure doesn't match the needs of rich, stateful applications.

It's your app, not ours. We wouldn't build an application that was intrinsically tied to one provider, so we wouldn't ask you to either. We've open sourced the engine behind Jamsocket as Plane, so you can run your app anywhere, forever.
