Best practice on using grocer for large scale push notifications

[ebalassanian]

I need to send notifications to a large number of devices (> 100K scaling to 1M). These notifications are triggered from client interaction with server side objects. Obviously I can't send these out inline so I'm looking at solutions to send the notifications asynchronously (e.g. sidekiq or delayed job). Are there existing best practices for achieving this with Grocer?

Hello @ebalassanian,

That is basically the same use case we had when we originally built Grocer. We had a large number of iOS clients and a Rails app. The Rails app would send notifications via Grocer, in a Resque job. Grocer has no dependencies on Rails nor any specific background job library. It's just Ruby and so can be integrated with any of those libraries.
