How does JAX-RS guarantee this functionality even in a cloud environment, where instance A possibly lives in JVM 1 while instance B lives in JVM 2?

 Application.getSingletons()?

 One way would be to use different event types, but this is really a layer above SSE.

 Are you concerned about getting a hold of a broadcaster?

The code example only shows "sslContext.newOutput()"… so is there only one "event sink" for all resources, or is the "event sink" private to the resource class… or is there a "newOutput(String eventSinkName)"?

It is possible to write SSE samples using the default request scope and without using statics (but with the SseContext injected as shown in the example).

Typically this instructs a Java EE server to create exactly one instance of a JAX-RS resource, hence is a guarantee that both, the SSE event source and the SSE event sink are defintively the same instance due to the singleton JAX-RS resource. This constraint apparently is needed to allow the SseEventOutput to correctly route the events from the SSE event source (the one being triggered by a posting client) to the SSE event sink (the one pushing SSE clients).

Will it be necessary for the application programmer to explicitly use a shared, static instance, or do you plan to provide some kind of service registry where shared SseEventOutput instances have to be looked up (which would also work on Java EE as a common programming model)? Related is the question whether different kinds of JAX-RS resources will be able to share an instance of SseEventOutput, so for example Resource A will push and event to SSE clients whenever a method of Resource B is invoked?
