CQRS with Erlang

Explore the implementation of Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) using Erlang in this 36-minute conference talk from Strange Loop 2013. Dive into the CQRS architectural pattern, which separates commands that mutate state from queries that return values, and learn how it can be effectively implemented using Erlang's functional programming paradigm. Discover how CQRS allows for independent scaling of read and write data stores, and its connection to the Event Sourcing pattern. Gain insights into how Erlang's unique features align perfectly with CQRS principles, simplifying the development of reliable, concurrent, and distributed systems. Compare the implementation of CQRS in Erlang with conventional languages like C# or Java, and understand why Erlang excels in this context. Learn from Bryan Hunter, a partner at Firefly Logic and founder of Nashville Functional Programmers, as he demonstrates a sample CQRS implementation in Erlang and highlights areas where this approach shines.
