OTP patterns address the challenge of building robust, concurrent systems in Elixir by separating domain data from process state and offering resilient infrastructure primitives.
Start by identifying infrastructure-bound responsibilities and implement a GenServer to manage that state while keeping domain data in PostgreSQL.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Use GenServer for stateful infrastructure like caches and session state, and use Agent for simple state wrappers and tiny shared state like counters, keeping domain data in PostgreSQL.
Use Task and Task.Supervisor for asynchronous work and parallel execution, but choose Oban when you need a persistent background job system in Elixir for reliable processing.
Elixir OTP provides supervision trees for resilient infrastructure primitives and supports dynamic process lookup, ensuring safe separation of concerns and process recovery.
Use Agent for simple state wrappers and tiny shared state like counters, while GenServer is better suited for stateful infrastructure requiring request and response semantics.
Production-grade Elixir applications use ETS for dynamic process lookup and caching, and Oban for persistent background jobs, following best practices for safe separation of concerns.
