Handling millions of connections in Cowboy using Elixir

You’re invited to a Meet Up at Perion.
Join us for tech talks, pizza, and beer!

Free shuttles will be provided – details below.

Topics:

· Why Erlang VM is a Perfect fit for Realtime Messaging
Speaker: Zvi Avraham, Founder & CEO, ZADATA

· Handling Millions of Connections in Cowboy Using Elixir
Speaker: Joey Feldberg, Sr. Backend Developer, Perion

Learn how to use Elixir to build a concurrent system using a proven HTTP server called Cowboy. We’ll show you how easy it is to learn and use Elixir in a short time - from figuring out how to build a distributed In-App messaging system, to deployment and production. You’ll also hear about Phoenix, and about how we use it as a lightweight JSON API while handling web sockets connections directly with Cowboy.

The talks will be given in Hebrew
