Hi Vijay,
let me answer this question for Ingmar. Currently implemented is the
JSON merge patch feature. JSON patch is on our roadmap. We aim for a
release that is fully compatible with the latest draft prior to the
Vancouver IETF which I also plan to attend. Once the RFC is published,
we are going to use SSE in production with our partners.
If you or somebody on the list has an ALTO implementation and is
interested in running tests, feel free to contact us.
If you like to know more, feel free to ask. We also happily give further
insights in our SSE implementation, or our ALTO implementation in
general in Vancouver. If you or the list is interested in specific
parts, please let us know and we prepare some slides for Vancouver.
Best,
Hans

Dear Ingmar: This is great information, thanks.
Did you implement both JSON patch and JSON merge patch?
Thanks,

Hi Danny,
We (BENOCS) have implemented the Alto SSE, but are lacking a
partner to speak it to in production scale.
In our testing environment it seems to work fine (even with
production data).
I was unable to attend Singapore, but will be available in
vancouver (and possibly madrid) to chat/present the research.
Best,
Ingmar
