Elixir vs Scala

Both Scala and Elixir take advantage of functional programming concepts and provide the right tools for building highly concurrent, scalable and distributed systems.

One can wonder which of the two is a better choice for a certain use case, especially when it comes to compute-intensive tasks - like machine learning algorithms.

As engineers, we prefer concrete numbers to all the buzzwords, so we load tested a simple pattern recognition app implemented in both technologies. Join our talk to see the results!

THIS TALK IN THREE WORDS

#Elixir

#Scala

#Optimization

OBJECTIVES

1. Give a clue of use cases of both Scala and Elixir technologies.

2. Present optimization process and methods for Erlang/Elixir applications.

TARGET AUDIENCE

Mainly Erlang/Elixir enthusiasts/developers but everyone interested in programming will benefit.
