Publishing Real-time Updates from Apex with Pusher
Apex provides a complete set of features for building business applications – including data models and objects to manage data, a workflow engine for managing collaboration of that data between users, a user interface model to handle forms and other interactions, and a Web services API for programmatic access and integration. You can now do this in realtime, using Pusher.

Managing and responding to the status of your Pusher connection
Pusher has a rich JavaScript client that handles the nitty gritty of WebSocket connections. It emits events to expose the connection's status. With this functionality, you can tell your users whether the realtime features of your site are available and, if they are not, if and when they might become available.
