Oban is a robust and flexible background job processing library for Elixir, built on top of PostgreSQL and Ecto; it focuses on delivering reliability, consistency, observability, and historical insight into job execution, making it well-suited for fault-tolerant, production-grade workloads. Oban is a powerful and flexible library that can handle a wide range of background job use cases, and it is well-suited for systems of any size.

Exq is a job processing library compatible with Resque / Sidekiq for the Elixir language. Exq uses Redis as a store for background processing jobs. Exq handles concurrency, job persistence, job retries, reliable queueing and tracking so you don't have to. Jobs are persistent so they would survive across node restarts. You can use multiple Erlang nodes to process from the same pool of jobs. Exq uses a format that is Resque/Sidekiq compatible. This means you can use it to integrate with existing Rails / Django projects that also use a background job that's Resque compatible - typically with little or no changes needed to your existing apps. ...

...Bamboo ships with adapters for several popular mail delivery services, including Mandrill, Mailgun, and SendGrid. It's also quite easy to write your own delivery adapter if your platform isn't yet supported. Deliver emails in the background. Most of the time you don't want or need to wait for the email to send. Bamboo makes it easy with Mailer.deliver_later. A functional approach to mail delivery. Emails are created, manipulated, and sent using plain functions. This makes composition a breeze and fits naturally into your existing Elixir app. Unit test with ease. Bamboo separates email creation and email delivery allowing you to test by asserting against email fields without the need for special functions. ...

...Developers can enrich pipelines with batching, concurrency control, and metrics reporting, simplifying the management of complex data ingestion and processing systems. Broadway is often used for event processing, stream handling, and background jobs, offering both performance and clarity in Elixir’s functional style.

...Traditionally, this work had to be repeated for each development tool and it required a mix of expertise in both the targeted programming language and the programming language internally used by the development tool of choice. The Elixir Language Server (ElixirLS) provides a server that runs in the background, providing IDEs, editors, and other tools with information about Elixir Mix projects. It adheres to the LSP, a standard for frontend-independent IDE support. Debugger integration is accomplished through a similar VS Code Debug Protocol. These pages contain all the information needed to configure your favorite text editor or IDE and to work with the ElixirLS. ...

...Real-time updates and responsive interactions are handled using Phoenix’s live capabilities and channels, demonstrating how to mix server-driven UI with interactive client behavior. Background jobs, caching, and pagination patterns are laid out in a way that scales from small communities to heavier usage. The codebase emphasizes maintainability with clear contexts, test coverage, and a straightforward deployment story. As a learning resource, it helps teams see how to stitch together Phoenix primitives into a cohesive, production-leaning application.

...Internally it uses optimized binary processing to keep allocations low and throughput high, which is why it became a popular choice in early Elixir ecosystems. The API is intentionally small and unsurprising, making it easy to drop into controllers, background jobs, or data pipelines. Many codebases still rely on Poison for its speed and simplicity, even as alternative JSON libraries exist in the community.
