What's perhaps different is that with GoGoVan you can ride with your stuff.
(Which resolves some of your worries about security and trust)
We're currently thinking of building our next version in elixir.
And of course we're hiring!
- Cyph0n 11y agoElixir huh. Great language, but how did you end up choosing it?
- matthewrudy 11y agoSo we're a Ruby shop and the backend is all Ruby right now. But as the company has grown, it's become apparent that what we need to become is a Global Soft-Realtime Logistics Platform. We could scale with Microservices and Go (something like Hailo in the UK) But actually, if our most important properties are real-time, and zero-downtime, then Elixir and OTP seem like a great choice.
- fapjacks 11y agoInteresting. Thanks for sharing a bit about your situation.
- plumeria 11y agoNice website, I like the design!
- matthewrudy 11y agoThanks. There's actually a new website in the works. The Singapore site is more up to date (and the english is better) http://gogovan.sg http://gogovan.sg
