I'm starting to learn SignalR, and the following questions arose (on the example of a chat):
1. Suppose, at the time of sending a message by one client, the second lost connection for a split second, and he reconnected. How can the second client not lose this message?
2. Suppose the second client disconnected for a while (went into sleep mode, for example), and then returned online. How can the second client get a list of missing messages when the connection is restored?

Hello.
SignalR is needed to deliver events from the server to the client and nothing more.
The described tasks can be solved if messages are stored (in a database, for example).

Use message queues, that's what they're designed for.
For .NET, a good and simple "out of the box" option would be MSMQ.
