node.js - Heroku Single User Node App, do I need Redis -
i'm building simple node app broadcast messaging using socket.io. have 3 users @ time
user 1: moderator (gets stream of social media comments various apis, picks messages send user 2 , user 3)
user 2: graphics (displays messages pushed user 1 graphics in openbroadcastsoftware)
user 3: host (displays messages pushed user 1 on ipad (to field viewer questions)
this realtime use, nothing needs saved or logged.
i know basics of sending , receiving socket.io messages.
my question is, portability, want host app on heroku
if single free/hobby dyno app, need sort of backend redis? or work if hosting app on local server since there once instance?
this app never going have more 3 users described above, i'm not looking implement scaling what-so-ever
thanks!
