Explore a 27-minute conference talk from Code BEAM Lite Stockholm 2024 that introduces Braid, a groundbreaking open-source Erlang/OTP system for distributed computing and orchestration. Learn how to spawn and orchestrate containers while enabling seamless peer-to-peer communication across cloud and edge platforms. Discover the implementation of secure Erlang distribution for connecting nodes in various topologies without exposing private keys to applications. See practical demonstrations of deploying planet-wide topologies on fly.io, integrating IoT nodes using GRiSP technology, and generating containers directly from rebar3. Understand how Braid's extensible functionality supports hybrid applications on heterogeneous networks, including various containers and microkernel-based applications.
