Read the second chapter. It’s quite good. I am working on an XMPP client, so the knowledge gained from his book could be invaluable.

Hoping for more Elixir books from PragProg, maybe something similar to Domain Modeling Made Functional.

The Ash Framework book will be coming out from them soon, which is somewhat related to what you’re asking for.

Hi! Have you checked out our book on Designing Elixir Systems with OTP? Designing Elixir Systems with OTP: Write Highly Scalable, Self-Healing Software with Layers by James Edward Gray, II and Bruce A. Tate
I think this title really digs into the topic of how to design your Elixir applications.

If I wanted to architect a tool that automates the provisioning of network switches enmasse for large (I really mean huge) data center (hundreds, thousands or hundreds of thousands of switches) as well as integrate monitoring tools, how could Elixir help with this? What are the boundaries relative to the lower level languages and protocols needed for this task? Does Elixir have libraries to help with this? It’s an open ended question but it’s also a real work use case. I’m prying for creative answers so I have no specific question.

Working through this has made me think, what resources/books would people suggest on protocol design and validation?
Any RFC’s with good practices or things to avoid?
I believe that Model Checking is also a useful tool for validating Protocol design, tools like TLA+ or SPIN, but wondered if any tools exist to model a protocol and generate code for the BEAM? (Hope that makes sense!)
