Rupy uses its multi-threaded non-blocking IO and comet-stream for massively concurrent real-time routing over HTTP. One example of this is a MMO[1] that uses HTTP as the only protocol for all data, including movement.
This allows Rupy to outscale all other MMO backends by a factor of 10x hosting 450 players with sub-millisecond server latency on a dual-core instance.[2]
The backend for Meadow is source-available and has 200+ stars on github.[3]
Meadow is also owned by over 300,000 people.[4]
Rupy was used as the embedded web-server for the Minecraft mapping tool JourneyMap.[5]
Rupy was tested in research by KTH[6] on non-blocking network solutions.
Rupy was also used by two instances in India, one giveaway items site and one University used it as foundation for a web-server programming course. But I cannot find them now.
