  3. broadway

    Concurrent and multi-stage data ingestion and data processing with Elixir

    Project mention: Actors: A Model of Concurrent Computation [pdf] | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-02-01

    Fair, I worked a lot on data pipelines and found the actor model worked well in that context. I particularly enjoyed it in the Elixir ecosystem where I was building on top of Broadway[0]

    Probably has to do with not fighting the semantics of the language.
