Why LFE is not just Common Lisp on the BEAM, why Elixir is not just Ruby, why Efene is not just Python? In this talk we will explore the ressons why BEAM languages are the way they are, which things the BEAM makes easy and which makes... complicated. We will explore what's involved in developing a language on the BEAM that's actually useful and share experiences and tips. More details here: https://codesync.global/speaker/robert-virding/

It allows developers to consume data efficiently and concurrently from many systems, such as Amazon SQS, RabbitMQ, Google Cloud PubSub and others. In this talk, José discusses how the Broadway architecture connects multiple stages and producers, how it leverages GenStage to provide back-pressure, how Elixir relies on OTP for fault-tolerance, and other features such as batching, rate-limiting, partitioning and more.

Many industries, such as retail and publishing, have already been swallowed whole. Television and advertising are half digested, bioscience is in the crosshairs. But like an Ouroboros and software is also constantly eating its own tail; automating itself out of existence. From punch cards, to octal, to assembly language, to static languages, to dynamic languages... software has always been used to make itself irrelevant. Which software subdomains are about to be eaten?

He holds a bachelor’s degree in computer programming and completed his MBA by counter example in San Francisco’s startup scene. Looking out from inside the Bay Area bubble, he realised that the world is not prepared for the future that technology is bringing. He is now focused on technology education, outreach, and policy.

This means that code gets messier, but also that the people who are part of the system have to handle ever-increasing complexity. It is not sufficient to take a code-centric approach; to make our Erlang and Elixir systems truly operator-friendly, we have to understand how our mental models work, and what constitutes good automation. Finally, we need to be aware of all the tools the Erlang VM makes available to us to truly deal with the unexpected.

He is a maintainer of Rebar3, and of libraries such as recon, pobox, vmstats, and backoff. He is a systems architect at Genetec, a company offering video systems, access control, case management, and IoT integration systems. Previously, he was principal member of technical staff on the Heroku platform, worked in Real Time Bidding, and provided Erlang training.

Every application needs to include a kernel application to be able to run. When starting an Erlang shell there are 39 processes running inside BEAM. What are those 39 processes and how do they work together to make BEAM tick? What exactly does Erlang kernel do and why does every application need it? What happened inside BEAM when you print a simple hello world to the screen? In this talk, we will take a deep dive into Erlang's kernel and find out how beautiful Erlang's internal works.

Connor will show how a weekend prototype was faster to develop, more stable and easier to deploy than the existing firmware. He will also show the integration of NervesHub to maintain the fleet of deployed devices. Read the full abstract: https://codesync.global/speaker/connor-rigby/ --- THE SPEAKER - CONNOR RIGBY Embedded Systems Engineer at Farmbot, Inc Connor is an open source software engineer with a love for all things embedded with a passion for sustainability in both hardware and software. Connor is the single Elixir developer at FarmBot, Inc and core contributor to the Nerves and NervesHub projects. He has ported Nerves to a number of interesting devices such as the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS among others. Connor is a firm believer that the Beam should run anywhere, especially on embedded ""edge"" devices.

Partisan reduces message latency through a combination of three predominately automatic optimizations: parallelism, named channels and affinitized scheduling. Partisan also assists the developer in deployment of their distributed applications by providing orchestration through Kubernetes, Mesos or Docker. Finally, Christopher presents preliminary work on improving the resiliency of your distributed applications through Partisan's new fault-injection framework.

Beginners tend to overuse features such as pattern matching and multiple function heads because of their novelty, while missing opportunities to make their code more generic and workable. Additionally, powerful language features such as protocols and behaviours are often overlooked due to their relative complexity. This talk will highlight many of the common beginner mistakes and often alternative patterns to writing code that tend to be more maintainable over time. Read the full abstract: https://codesync.global/speaker/david-lucia/ --- THE SPEAKER - DAVID LUCIA Dave started as a C++ developer but has refactored himself into a passionate Elixir dev. He is proud of building https://theoutline.com, as well as rebuilding Bloomberg.com in 2014 Dave is currently using Elixir and Rust to build high load, real-time sports betting software at SimpleBet. Before that, Dave spent two and a half years at The Outline, where he built its custom CMS and advertising platform in Elixir and Phoenix. Prior to that, he worked for Bloomberg where he was an integral part of the 2014 Bloomberg.com relaunch. Dave lives in Queens, NY with his wife and 6lb pomeranian named Pearl.
