Hai,

I'm trying to integrate the websocket into existing
application.

Based on my search, i found a websocket module to do this, but it isn't updated yet. https://github.com/disconnect/apache-websocket.

Any chance that the module will be included in Apache ?

Also i found in StackOverflow conversation that Apache httpd wasn't design to maintain persistent connection, is that true ? Using WebSocket on Apache server

Should continue using Apache websocket module or using separate websocket server ?

If mod_websocket is what you are looking for:

Klick on the "Downloads" link to the left, select 32 or 64 bit and then download and install the version you need.

Best regards,
JP

It's NOT an official module but a 3rd party module for Apache.

is that recommended approach when creating websocket server ? or should we use another websocket server.

how about Apache capabilities for handling long running persistent connection?

That is your descision and I cannot make it for you. I do not use it or websockets so all I can say is try it, if it does not work for your needs then go with another websocket server.

If the module exists, chances are Apache can handle it.

I saw you posted this question to the developer mailing list, so you may get some answers there from more knowledgeable people.
