ElixirConf 2022 - Angel Martinez - Designing Data Intensive Applications in Elixir with Flow

Designing Data-Intensive Applications in Elixir with Flow.
Correctness, data integrity, and good
performance in distributed systems are
always a game of tradeoffs. But what if we
could have it all with Elixir?
Batch processing and event streaming in
Flow eliminates data integration problems
by "flowing" data changes between
different systems. It allows us to unbound
our distributed databases and maintain
correctness across our cluster. It also
performs extremely well. In this talk, we'll
explore how to leverage these powers in
Flow using practical examples while also
drawing from renowned resources in the system
design, such as "Designing Data-Intensive
Applications" by Martin Kleppmann, to tie
it all together. Audience members will leave
with an understanding of when and how to
use Flow, and how to start thinking about
solving their data-intensive problems in
new, optimized ways.
