8 April 2026 Online

A technical workshop walking engineering teams through the SMPP-versus-HTTP decision — connection models, DLR handling, throughput, and operational cost.

## About this event

BroadNet's engineering team ran an online workshop on choosing between SMPP 3.4 and HTTP APIs for messaging integrations. The session went beyond throughput to cover connection models, in-band versus webhook delivery receipts, reconnect and window management, and the operational ownership each protocol implies.

## On the agenda

- Persistent vs request/response models
- Delivery receipts: deliver_sm vs webhooks
- Throughput & latency trade-offs
- Operational cost of running SMPP
- When to run both protocols
