Elixir Conf 2016 Edgelixir: Distributed Graph Processing in Elixir by Nathan Lapierre

Edgelixir: Distributed Graph Processing in Elixir by Nathan Lapierre Distributed graph processing systems are an important part of the modern data toolkit. Graph structures are a great way to solve a lot of problems, and distributed systems let us scale our problem size. This talk walks through how some of Elixir s features (including OTP, macros, and functional programming itself) can come together to simplify writing a distributed graph system. The result is Edgelixir; an early, workinprogress, Pregelb
