This video was recorded at virtual Code BEAM V America conference, which took place on 10-12th March 2021 - https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-v-america-2021/ Don t try this at home: Rethinking infrastructure with Elixir | Amy Null - Software Engineer ABSTRACT The modern, scalable application development process has a lot of moving parts -- deploying code with a tool like Kubernetes, managing hosts with a tool like Saltstack, uploading assets somewhere like S3, message queues like RabbitMQ, plus concerns like service discovery, load balancing, failover, and many more. But these are all treated as separate problems, when they might actually be strongly related. What might things look like if we rethought these problems in a more integrated way, powered by Elixir? OBJECTIVE The objective is to provide a brief overview of current application infrastructure and some patterns that can be seen with it, how the different parts are looking at the same problem from a different angle, and how Elixir can be used to bring it all together. While this can be accomplished with most languages, the aim is to highlight how Elixir is suited to a potential solution in this problem space. • Timecodes 00:00 - 02:31 - What is Infrastructure 02:32 - 08:14 - The elephant in the room 08:15 - 10:31 - Complexity 10:32 - 16:58 - Singyeong 16:59 - 27:40 - Mahou 27:41 - 29:10 - Future work 29:11 - 38:43 - QnA • Follow us on social: Website: https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-v-america-2021/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CodeBEAMio • Looking for a unique learning experience?
