EMPEX LA 2018 - Shipping a Replacement Architecture in Elixir by Chris Bell
Channel: EMPEX Conference
Date: 2018-02-16

This talk will be deep-dive of how over the last 6 months at Frame.io we shipped a replacement API architecture built entirely in Elixir and Phoenix to replace an aging Rails monolith. During the talk we’ll dig into the structure, talk about our nifty GenStage event bus, take a quick tour of moving millions of records using Flow, and wind up showing some nice graphs of all the wins.
