Man, how cool is this. I don't think people really understand just yet what fly.io is doing with Phoenix/Elixir and how it is changing deployment and scaling for multi-region, real-time apps. At this point, I'm just trying to figure out something worth building to take advantage of this technology!
A couple links have been mentioned already, but I'll add two more that got me really excited about Phoenix + Fly:
1. Chris McCord talking about joining Fly.io and all the cool stuff they're working on: https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/62 https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/62
2. Kurt Mackey talking about Fly.io before Chris joined the company: https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/56 https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/56
And in case anyone is interested, this is the Phoenix Framework homepage: https://www.phoenixframework.org/ https://www.phoenixframework.org/
What a time to be a software engineer, Phoenix + Elixir + Liveview + Tailwind + Fly.io is just so, so exciting.
- jamil7 5y agoVery cool stuff, I haven’t properly looked into it since it was more a programmable proxy type produce a few years ago. But I’m planning on moving a smaller client’s backend off Heroku and onto fly since it would be about a third of the price to run and likely way faster but just as easy for a not-really-backend person like me.
