we had a third party integration taht required creating a websocket connection for each customer.

Using elixir, all I had to do was hookin hoard, write a genserver and hoard registry. It took about a day without knowing how to do it beforehand. Out of the box it clusters these process accross several machines and handles failover and crash recovery.

yea, try doing that in another language. where else is doing that trivial? Elixir doesn't just handle multicore. it handles multi machine parallelism with ease
