Salesforce Pub/Sub APIs are now generally available 👏👌
Here is the post which explains it well.
Summary of this initiative from salesforce is below:
👉 Consumers of Streaming APIs (used for PE, CDC and legacy PushTopics and Generic) have to use CometD to connect with Salesforce and listen to the events.
👉 CometD open source development is not going further and slowly it will be deprecated in open source (#safeharbour)
👉 Salesforce decided to move the underlined tech to move away from CometD to gRPC which is a modern open source high performance Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework that can run in any environment)
👉 This means all the consumers of events (from pe, cdc etc) will move to better connector apis and supported by most of the languages.
👉 So if we building the consumers in JS or Java, then we have better framework and apis to consume the messages.
