Polyphony
A Ruby library for fine-grained concurrency using fibers, structured concurrency, and high-performance I/O.
What is Polyphony?
Polyphony is a Ruby library for building concurrent applications using a cooperative, coroutine-based model. It harnesses Ruby fibers to provide fine-grained concurrency, focusing on performance and developer-friendly abstractions. The library solves the complexity of concurrent programming in Ruby by offering structured concurrency and high-performance I/O through integrations like io_uring.
Ruby developers building concurrent applications, such as servers, data processing pipelines, or I/O-intensive systems, who need lightweight concurrency and high performance.
Developers choose Polyphony for its seamless integration with Ruby fibers, structured concurrency model that simplifies error handling, and high-performance I/O capabilities using io_uring or libev, making it a robust alternative to traditional threading or event-driven approaches.
