• Hey where do I start from. I’d like to build a server that accepts only websocket connections. I heard elixir is good for this.

  For hosting you could check out https://gigalixir.com/, they have a free tier. Source: about 2 years ago

• Deploying an Elixir Release to Gigalixir

  I'll show you how to deploy a Phoenix 1.6 application, with Elixir 1.12 Release to https://gigalixir.com. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Preparing a Phoenix 1.6 app for deployment with Elixir Releases

  I'll show you how to deploy to Gigalixir in a future post. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Free for dev - list of software (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, etc.)

  Gigalixir.com - Gigalixir provide 1 free instance that never sleeps, and free-tier PostgreSQL database limited to 2 connections, 10, 000 rows and no backups, for Elixir/Phoenix apps. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• Best options for deploying your frontend and backend

  The second approach is to deploy your backend and frontend separately. For example, if I'm going with Phoenix then I could use Gigalixir (which also provides managed DBs). The Nuxt app can be deployed on a standard app platform (e.g. DigitalOcean again). This would require us to set up CORS, but it shouldn't be too difficult.

• Building realtime experiences with Amazon Aurora

  Aurora is a managed database service from Amazon compatible with MySQL and PostgreSQL. It allows for the use of existing MySQL code, tools, and applications and can offer increased performance for certain workloads compared to MySQL and PostgreSQL. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Interview candidates that don't know the stuff on their CV's - What am I missing?

  See my other comment on this thread. More typically you'd use RDS for external DB. Aurora is a megascale version. Source: 11 months ago

• multi write in the same time

  If you get to a point where RDS cannot handle your work load you can migrate to Amazon Aurora: Https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/. Source: about 1 year ago

• "Everything in games has a budget. When we use the term 'budget', as developers, we're not talking about money. You know, a lot a lot of people hear that thing, they think, 'Oh, that's how much money you spend...'"
