Media streaming in the functional world - Mateusz Front | Lambda Days 2024

This talk was recorded at Lambda Days in June 2024. If you’re curious about our upcoming event, check https://lambdadays.org

Abstract
Media streaming is usually associated with low-level, imperative languages. Yet, through the last few years, I’ve been leading the development of Membrane - the media streaming framework in Elixir. In this talk, I’ll share the rationale behind our approach and how it turned out in practice. After quickly introducing you to the multimedia world, I’ll discuss the benefits and challenges of bringing that world to Elixir and functional programming in general.
