Persistent connection
A persistent connection is a communication link kept open for reuse across multiple messages or operations, rather than reestablished for each exchange.
Build Your Own Robot: Using Python, CRICKIT, and Raspberry Pi
A persistent connection is a network connection that remains open so multiple requests can be transmitted without establishing a new connection for each request.
- How it is used
- Improves remote robot web-service calls by reusing one connection for repeated movement requests.
- How deep it goes
- Implements reusable HTTPConnection request functions and a 100-sample timing procedure, while deferring lower-level protocol detail.
- Examples
- Demonstrates spin-right and spin-left calls at three speeds, then times repeated noop calls.
- What you can do after
- Apply it via Python's HTTPConnection to send repeated robot-service requests and measure their latency.
Practical Automation with PowerShell: Effective scripting from the console to the cloud
A persistent connection is a remote connection established before command execution and maintained until it is explicitly closed.
- How it is used
- Uses remote sessions to execute automation across multiple devices with lower elapsed time and better failure isolation.
- How deep it goes
- Explains setup, parallel execution, failure handling, resource trade-offs, and the default 32-connection limit.
- Examples
- Uses 20-server checks, 30-second scripts, five-minute execution comparisons, and failed-device scenarios.
- What you can do after
- Operate parallel remote automation while managing failed sessions and connection-related resource limits.
