A few potential challenges and reasons to wait on this: - the Websocket API is still in a state of change - the existing REST API is synchronous request/response, so there's not a lot of benefit to switching to websockets without a lot of rework - The real benefit will be when you Javascript and other web clients can use a pure binary protocol (not possible today)

Have anyone thought, or is it possible to implement a Websocket Endpoint in Neo4J Server so one can use this instead of the RESTful API. Which would be more performant and scalable than the RESTful HTTP API. It is possible to use such a Websocket through Java, Node and any other Server Side Language and even JavaScript on the client side. What do you think?
