Corollary Question: what do people with prior experience scaling Elixir/Phoenix think about scaling with it?
I've read very strong reports favorable of it. For instance, it also can be scaled using progressively better hardware (like better CPU or more RAM), or horizontally scaling too. that Also that with a database on the same network, there won't be much need for a cache. Presumably, ability to throw CPU and RAM would lessen some needs for queue too.
At the same time, I don't notice much Elixir usage in practice and it has remained a small community.
- bnchrch 2y agoIts fantastic to scale with. I had written a reply to this thread days ago and decided not to post it. But its amazing that you can do away with all the message queue infra since its essentially baked in.
- wkyleg 2y agoHow good is the vertical scaling with modern hardware? Can you really just keep upgrading the hardware and essentially just scale a rails app?
