Smart Offline Behavior

#Goals To outline the ideal behavior for Poly to intelligently handle use both online and offline.

#Requirements Poly needs to be accessible to users on the go, wherever they may be. That means functioning without access to its servers.

The solution must be as close to financially free as possible, at least for now.

#Behavior

• A user should be able to use Poly to collect data, compose books, phrases, and videos, without access to the server.
• A user should be able to define documents to save locally, for use without access to the server.

#State of knowledge

• Heroku Elastic search client Bonsai has funky free tier
• Elastic Cloud is very not free (~$800.00/Year)
• Pubnub helps with realtime apps.
• AWS Cognito for offline syncing. (Also look into Elastic Filesystem)
• Convox for deployment?
• Docker for containerization.
