Build Efficient Data Processing Pipelines in Elixir Using Broadway

Announced in February 2019, Broadway is a new open source tool developed by Plataformatec that aims to streamline data processing pipelines with Elixir. It allows developers to build complex GenStage topologies that can consume and process data efficiently from different sources, including Amazon SQS and RabbitMQ. In this talk, we'll discuss some of the main concepts behind Broadway, how it leverages OTP to achieve fault-tolerance, sharing implementation details and architectural aspects. You'll learn how to build efficient data processing pipelines and how to optimize them using real-time metrics based on Telemetry events.
