TLDR GraphQL Subscriptions and the Apollo Project provide a type-safe and API forward way to interact with server push and event-based requests such as Web Sockets. The current implementations for subscriptions in Apollo Server depend on a stateful server, where the subscriptions and publications occur in the same runtime.
