+
+## Key Features Demonstrated
+
+### 1. Session Roaming
+
+- Sessions move freely between instances
+- No sticky sessions required
+- EventStore provides continuity
+
+### 2. Production Deployment
+
+- Docker Compose for local testing
+- Kubernetes manifests in README
+- NGINX load balancing example
+- Redis persistence configuration
+
+### 3. Developer Experience
+
+- Automated testing script
+- Comprehensive documentation
+- Quick start guide
+- Clear error messages
+- Detailed logging
+
+### 4. Code Quality
+
+- Type hints throughout
+- Comprehensive docstrings
+- Configuration via CLI arguments
+- Environment-based configuration
+- Proper error handling
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Local Development
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1
+uv run mcp-streamablehttp-roaming --port 3001 --instance-id instance-1
+
+# Terminal 2
+uv run mcp-streamablehttp-roaming --port 3002 --instance-id instance-2
+
+# Terminal 3
+./test_roaming.sh
+```
+
+### Docker Compose
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+# Access via http://localhost/mcp (load balanced)
+# or directly via http://localhost:3001/mcp, :3002/mcp, :3003/mcp
+```
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+```bash
+# Create session on Instance 1
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3001/mcp -H "Content-Type: application/json" ...
+
+# Use session on Instance 2
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3002/mcp -H "MCP-Session-ID: <session-id>" ...
+```
+
+## Total Lines of Code
+
+- Python code: ~331 lines
+- Configuration: ~149 lines
+- Documentation: ~867 lines
+- Testing: ~100 lines
+- **Total: ~1,447 lines**
+
+## Implementation Highlights
+
+### Minimal Code for Maximum Impact
+
+**Enable session roaming with just:**
+
+```python
+event_store = RedisEventStore(redis_url="redis://localhost:6379")
+manager = StreamableHTTPSessionManager(app=app, event_store=event_store)
+```
+
+### No Special Session Store Needed
+
+The EventStore alone enables:
+
+- ✅ Event replay (resumability)
+- ✅ Session roaming (distributed sessions)
+- ✅ Horizontal scaling
+- ✅ High availability
+
+### Production-Ready Patterns
+
+- Redis persistence (AOF enabled)
+- Health checks
+- Graceful shutdown
+- Comprehensive logging
+- Environment-based configuration
+- CORS support
+
+## Related Files in SDK
+
+The example uses these SDK components:
+
+- `mcp.server.streamable_http_manager.StreamableHTTPSessionManager` - Session management
+- `mcp.server.streamable_http.EventStore` - Interface for event storage
+- `mcp.server.lowlevel.Server` - Core MCP server
+- `mcp.types` - MCP protocol types
+
+## Contributing
+
+To extend this example:
+
+1. **Add new tools** - Modify `server.py` to add more tool handlers
+2. **Custom EventStore** - Implement EventStore for other databases
+3. **Monitoring** - Add Prometheus metrics or OpenTelemetry
+4. **Authentication** - Add auth middleware to Starlette app
+5. **Rate limiting** - Add rate limiting middleware
+
+See README.md for more details on each approach.
