Migrate from Pusher Chatkit to Stream Chat

Pusher announced the shutdown of its real-time messaging service, Chatkit, to focus on its Channels and Beams products, leaving customers to migrate to alternative platforms like Stream Chat. While Chatkit offered basic chat functionalities, it lagged behind competitors in features and scalability, which contributed to its inability to compete effectively. Stream Chat, in contrast, provides a more extensible and user-friendly solution, offering ready-made frontend components and advanced features like mentions, reactions, and unlimited group chat participants. With a robust infrastructure supporting over 500 million users and a 99.99% uptime, Stream Chat promises reliable performance and scalability, making it particularly suited for enterprise needs. Migration from Chatkit to Stream Chat is facilitated by a detailed guide available on GitHub, ensuring a seamless transition with no data loss.
