Lisbon |> Elixir 21st Edition

Hey there fellow Sippers! We're very excited to be back with another edition 🚀 We'd like to thank Bounce for hosting and sponsoring this edition 🤗

CodeSync has been very generous in providing one physical ticket for the upcoming ElixirConf EU in Lisbon, which we will raffle during the meet-up! So if you'd like to attend this conference for free, join us and enter in the raffle!

• Talk #1: Building a MIDI Sequencer with Elixir
Speaker: Dino Costa – Senior Software Engineer @ Bounce
 

Let's explore how we can leverage Elixir's GenServer together with the midiex library to create a MIDI sequencer and control a MIDI-enabled device in order to make some noise 🎵

• Talk #2: Enhancing API Security with Elixir: A Case Study from Helvetia Insurance
Speaker: André Graf – DevOps Solution Architect @ Helvetia Insurance

In this presentation, we've set out to explore the innovative use of Elixir within the Helvetia API platform, home to approximately 500 internal and external HTTP APIs deployed on AWS API Gateway.
We delve into several limitations of AWS's built-in API Gateway product that led us to architect a custom proxy server using Elixir deployed between AWS API Gateway and the upstream API backends. The HTTP proxy server enhances API security by enforcing request and response validations on all API traffic entering and leaving the Helvetia API platform.
This server stands as a testament to the diverse and dynamic capabilities of Elixir within a real-world, corporate context.
Join our talk and get an inside look into the processes and inspirations behind our custom-built HTTP proxy.

Here's the schedule for the event:
• 6:30PM - 7:15PM – Welcome & Registration
• 7:15PM - 7:45PM – Talk #1
• 7:45PM - 7:50PM – Elixir Conf EU Ticket Raffle 🎫

• 7:50PM - 8:00PM – Mingle 🍻☕
• 8:00PM - 8:30PM – Talk #2

We will do our best to make all of our events hybrid. We will meet in-person but if you'd like attend remotely we will broadcast the event via Zoom. We'll post the details as a comment on this page closer to the event date.

Take the opportunity to mingle, network and share experiences! Last but not least, please keep submitting your talks for future editions of this meetup! Send us a message via the meet-up platform or open an issue on this repo.

      Hey Jen! The second talk unfortunately wasn't recorded, but the first talk was recorded! I'm editing it and once that's done I'll publish it on the Lisbon Elixir YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@lisbonelixir). I'll also drop a comment here 👍
