Oh Erlang... where have you been all my life?
RE: HTTP/Web Sockets/TCP/UDP/etc. - check out NineNines libraries: Ranch (TCP Socket Acceptor), Cowboy (HTTP Server), Gun (HTTP client), and CowLib (General HTTP/SPDY library) are pretty good from what I hear.

Build an Elixir Redis Server that's 100x faster than HTTP
Ranch is a pretty well optimized and battle hardened tcp acceptor. It powers the Cowboy/Phoenix server which scales to extreme level of concurrency and low latency. Cowboy uses ranch to pool and accept connections and I believe it uses {active,once}.
