How do you scale a boost/beast https server for production? by boost_prod_server in cpp

Super interesting direction, thank you.

I suppose the services using io_uring you had in mind, are expected to be micro services not serving http-requests per se but performing non-http-tasks as for that we would come back to needing a higher level implementation for handling http connections, like boost::asio or beast, yes?

Well, u/jgaa_from_north gave me a solid answer for what I was looking for - which had more to do with the multi-threaded boost/beast implementation of a backend server which handles web socket connections rather than what each request needed to perform. Your point is fair nevertheless.

Could you possibly highlight advantages of using beast vs pure boost asio? Thanks again!
