Realtime identity verification (IDV) is increasingly integral for modern applications, where traditional HTTP polling may result in latency and inefficiency. Websockets, offering a persistent, bi-directional communication channel, are advantageous for faster responses and improved user experience. Despite these benefits, websockets present challenges in reliability and scalability, necessitating best practices for robust infrastructure in IDV workflows. Effective websocket management involves stateful connection handling, robust reconnection logic with exponential backoff, message queuing to mitigate data loss, and strong authentication protocols using WSS and JWTs to secure sensitive data. Scaling concerns are addressed by maintaining persistent connections for numerous users, while state management ensures continuity in workflows post-disconnection. Using systems like Redis and databases like MongoDB aids in session state tracking and data persistence, enhancing performance and resilience. Didit's identity platform exemplifies these best practices by offering a comprehensive websocket infrastructure that includes automatic reconnection, message queuing, secure communication, and a scalable architecture to support a large number of concurrent connections, facilitating efficient and secure ID verification processes.
