I’ve been impressed with Elixir. At my current gig it’s easily replaced a bunch of java microservices using RabbitMQ as the messaging backbone that struggled to handle the workload. To try and handle the load we kept upping the hardware spec.

I thought that Elixir could do better and created a replacement Elixir monolith. The replacement happily handles the workload while running on my MacBook Pro.
