flow
A computational parallel flow library for Elixir built on top of GenStage for parallel processing of collections.
What is flow?
Flow is an Elixir library for parallel computation on collections, built on top of GenStage. It allows developers to process data in parallel across multiple stages, similar to working with Enum and Stream but with concurrent execution. It solves the problem of efficiently handling large datasets or computationally intensive operations by distributing work across processes.
Elixir developers who need to process large collections or streams of data with improved performance through parallel execution. It's particularly useful for data processing pipelines, batch jobs, and real-time stream analysis.
Developers choose Flow because it provides a familiar Elixir API for parallel processing without requiring low-level concurrency management. Its integration with GenStage ensures efficient backpressure handling and scalability, making it a robust solution for high-throughput data processing tasks.
