Usage Aggregator Blog Post

[LucioFranco]

Outline

Purpose of this blog post is to show readers how to build a basic state tracking system in a highly distributed and concurrent system in Elixir/OTP.

• Explain the problem we are facing of tracking how many bytes an application has sent in a distributed environment.
• Explain our solution in high with maybe a diagram, this means explaining our usage of GenServer.
• Give a simple example of the usage of GenServer, Registry, and Supervisor.
• Conclude in how this helps track and how it impacts concurrency.
