Horde provides a distributed, fault-tolerant Registry and DynamicSupervisor for Elixir applications, letting you run and manage processes across clustered nodes as if they lived on a single machine. It relies on conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTs) to converge membership and process ownership without a central leader, so cluster topology can change freely as nodes join or leave. With Horde.Registry you register processes globally and look them up anywhere, while Horde.DynamicSupervisor starts and migrates children across nodes, rebalancing as capacity or health changes. Because everything runs under OTP supervision, failures are isolated and recoveries are automatic, even during network partitions or rolling deploys. ...

Beacon is a modern open-source CMS built with Phoenix LiveView, offering fast server-rendered HTML for content-heavy pages with LiveView interactivity layered on top. It includes runtime content reloading, SEO-optimized rendering, and an admin interface (Beacon LiveAdmin) for managing pages, layouts, and components in a cluster-friendly setup. Developed by DockYard, Beacon aims to deliver high performance content sites fully within the Elixir ecosystem.

...The cache backend store used for session storage can be replaced with any key-value store of your choice. The built-in Mnesia cache module works both for clusters and single-machine persistence, which can auto-connect to the cluster on startup and self-heal after netsplit.

libcluster provides automatic cluster formation and node discovery for Erlang/Elixir applications, removing the manual steps typically required to connect distributed nodes. It ships with multiple pluggable strategies—such as DNS polling, Kubernetes integration, EC2 metadata/tag discovery, UDP gossip, and EPMD helpers—so you can adapt clustering to your runtime environment.

Swarm is a distributed process registry for Elixir/Erlang that lets you register and discover processes across a cluster as if they were on a single node. It focuses on automatic distribution and rebalancing, so when nodes join or leave, Swarm can move work and hand off state to keep the system stable. The library offers a global name registry, conflict resolution for name ownership, and hooks for reacting to membership changes. Its design embraces OTP principles, using supervised processes and fault-tolerant messaging to keep the registry resilient under failures. ...
