Talk 35:00

Bring back the power of Beam deployments with DeployEx

This talk explores how abstractions can accelerate production while sacrificing access to critical facilities. It consists of three parts:

1 - Contextualizing the Problem: We’ll examine challenges in embedded systems, highlighting the transition from microcontrollers to OS and the loss of hardware capabilities.

2 - Transitioning from Embedded to Web Deployments: I’ll share my journey, emphasizing deployment mistakes made while moving from scripts to tools like Kubernetes and Ansible, leading to the development of DeployEx, an Elixir application.

3 - Overview of DeployEx: Finally, I’ll discuss the features of this open-source project and its future potential.
