Elixir huh. Great language, but how did you end up choosing it?

  So 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.
