We have an enterprise customer and want to purchase a lot of resources. Unfortunately this is a deal breaker for us.

Sidenote: For use with socket.io you dont need sticky sessions in 2024! You can disable the http-longpolling as described in the socketio docs: https://socket.io/docs/v4/using-multiple-nodes/

I need this to enable live inbox support for my backend. We need to keep minimum 2 servers for high availability but then can't use websockets without sticky sessions

This is a deal blocker for a lot of Python data science applications.

They do file uploads (which happens on one instance).

And then perform data analysis on a different one!

I sorely need this. I have a few services I'd like to have on Render but have to run on VPSs until this gets implemented.

This would be great!

Please implement this!

We need this as well for horizontal scaling!

When doing horizontal scaling for web socket servers, this is much needed for client file uploads.

This is needed for horizontally scaling web socket servers eg. socket.io

For now, I wonder if we could at least get some insight into how the load balancer works with WebSockets?
