Well, that’s a good question. I think the best answer for now is “we’ll see”?

I use it in place of Tailscale for some homelab applications. I’ve started to deploy other experiments on a “prod” cluster. The demo I showed shows how Pollen responds to a multi-step pipeline type application; two WASM seeds and a single egress communicating over the provided RPC mechanism (`pln://seed…` etc) whilst handling routing, back pressure and the like.

Right now, the workloads need to be stateless. I’m coming up with a story for state at the moment, which’ll likely start as some WAL-like convergent structure with thin (KV store etc) abstractions layered over it. Probably not dissimilar from the pattern underpinning the current CRDT gossip state.
