    For the scenario described in the question, there isn’t really much management to do. To avoid having to re-authenticate on every request, simply don’t close the connection. In a chat server, especially, it’s quite likely that each participant will establish a connection and then continue using that same connection for the duration of the chat.

    Indy server objects already keep a list of their open connections, so when you want to broadcast a chat message to the other participants, you can just iterate over that list.
