Managing Distributed State with GenServers in Phoenix and Elixir


This two-part series explores working with Phoenix in a distributed setup. In part one, we'll look at GenServers.

With its elegant syntax and the robustness of the Erlang VM, Elixir is an ideal candidate for tackling the challenges of distributed state management. DeltaCrdt provides a simple-to-use API for managing a map of data that is guaranteed to be conflict-free (across distributed usage) and replicated across multiple nodes. This foundational knowledge is crucial for building scalable, resilient systems that can handle high traffic and maintain data integrity across multiple servers.
