Hello,

I am developing a CI/CD tool aimed at simplifying the testing of hot code upgrades. Your responses to the following questions would be crucial in helping me make informed decisions to support Elixir.

  1. Do you use OTP’s releases ?
  2. Do you perform hot code upgrades/downgrades ?
  3. What tools do you currently use ? (Mix, Rebar, custom scripts, …)
  4. For what kind of project do you use this functionality ? (Web, Telecom, IoT, …)

Thank you in advance for your answers !

Thank you for your answer !

When working on web related projects, people often prefer using rolling updates, may I ask why you preferred to perform hot code upgrades instead ?

  1. Yes
  2. No. It seem to be too easy to shot yourself in the foot (possibly without noticing it) for the usually small amounts of upsides (in my work). Would love to learn more if that’s an incorrect assumption though or if there’s reliable ways to detect issues for someone without extensive experience doing them.
  3. Mix to build the release. Systemd and/or docker for running it.
  4. Mostly Web, some IoT

  1. Yes.
  2. No. Would like to but it does seem complicated and not available in releases so didn’t give much more thought.
  3. Mix and the release with systemd.
  4. Web.
