Push pull messaging describes a communication model where data can be either actively sent to recipients or passively retrieved by them. In a push system, information is automatically delivered to subscribed users or applications without an explicit request. Conversely, a pull system requires the client to initiate a request to receive data from a server or network. This dual approach offers flexibility in data dissemination and consumption, balancing immediate delivery with on-demand access.
Context
News in the Web3 space discusses push pull messaging in the context of decentralized notification services, data feeds, and inter-protocol communication. Debates often concern the optimal balance between real-time updates and user-controlled data fetching, especially concerning privacy and resource usage on decentralized networks. A critical future development involves standardized, secure, and censorship-resistant push pull mechanisms for dApps to communicate with users and other protocols. Efficient messaging is crucial for building responsive and user-friendly decentralized applications.
