Turn Hours into Seconds - Concurrent Event Processing

Emil Soman
Software Consultant at Codemancers

For programmers who have been using locks for synchronizing threads to solve all concurrency problems, embracing message passing and creating concurrent data flows is an enlightening experience. This talk is a case study of a real world concurrency problem where the developer started with a slow non-thread-safe solution and refactored it step by step into a fast yet simple concurrent solution making use of Elixir's concurrent computation library called Flow.
