Ready to deploy Elixir to production? Do you know which options exist for deploying @elixirlang apps?

Let's explore the current landscape of #Elixir hosting:

A 🧵 👇🏽

#MyElixirStatus
Nodechef

Allows you to deploy from CLI, git, or bundle uploads. Multiregion support. Support for Let's Encrypt certificates.
Doesn't support releases, uses Buildpacks instead to control the deployment process.

nodechef.com/elixir-hosting
Gigalixir

Clustering support, hot upgrades, remote console, observers, GenServer, and ssh access to running instance. Let's Encrypt certificate support. Releases support. Regions support. Scaling support.

Fly

Modern, support releases inside Docker images, clustering, ssh access. Multiregion support. Scaling support.
fly.io
Heroku

Limited connection, clustering unavailable. GenServer, ETS, and Agents data lost each time heroku restart instances, observer not available. Good for simple isolated applications.

heroku.com
Render

Supports clustering, elixir releases, 2 regions supported: USA and Europe.

render.com
AWS and GCP.

If any of the hosted deployment is not providing support for some advanced deployment you need or you want to have complete control of it for whatever reason, you can always use AWS and GCP (maybe with Terraform or some other sane way to interact with them).

Do you want to create a GraphQL API with Elixir?

Here are all the resources you need to get started.

A 🧵

#MyElixirStatus #graphql #elixir
Absinthe GraphQL

@absinthegraphql is THE GraphQL library you want to use. It is an amazing toolkit that implements the GraphQL specification in an idiomatic Elixir style.

absinthe-graphql.org
Absinthe allows you to define schemas:

- define the data entities, queries, mutations, and subscriptions
- supports custom scalars
- allows deprecating definitions
