Looking for a solution to draw an html table reflecting some server side data but somehow in real time. Some might suggest using a timer refreshing the table asynchronously, however this is not the solution in mind. In other words, what is needed is some sort of a push notification from the server each time a record is inserted into the table, to be reflected on screen. My web application is built using ASP.net MVC 4.

Also consider Server Sent Events (SSE), if you don't need bi-directional data back and forth from client to server.

HTML 5 Websockets are best for such things.

EventSource is far easier to setup for this kind of use case. –  Teemu Ikonen Dec 26 '12 at 7:57
