Lightning Talk: C++ in the Cloud: One NIF at a Time with Elixir - Sakshi Verma - CppCon 2024

#cpp #cppcon Lightning Talk: C++ in the Cloud: One NIF at a Time with Elixir - Sakshi Verma - CppCon 2024 --- In today’s cloud-driven world, the demand for high-performance and scalable systems is paramount. This lightning talk highlights how C++ can play a crucial role in optimizing cloud services, especially when integrating existing C/C++ libraries within an Elixir-based environment. Although Elixir excels in scalability, performance bottlenecks can arise when interacting heavily with native libraries. Instead of rewriting the functionalities in Elixir, leveraging the power of existing C++ libraries through Native Implemented Functions (NIFs) offers a compelling solution. This presentation showcases how C++ can overcome these performance challenges, enhancing cloud applications while preserving the efficiency of well-established libraries. The talk underscores the importance of C++ in modern cloud ecosystems, even in domains typically dominated by other languages. --- Sakshi Verma is a seasoned Software Engineer with over 7 years of experience in Software Development, focusing on C++ and Cloud Services.
