TigerBeetlex an Elixir and Zig Love Story - Riccardo Binetti | ElixirConf EU 2025

✨This talk was recorded at ElixirConf EU 2025. If you're curious about our upcoming event, check https://elixirconf.eu ✨ Abstract: What if your application database could process financial transactions up to 1000x faster than a general purpose database? That's the goal of TigerBeetle, a distributed financial accounting database designed for mission critical safety and performance. In this talk I will introduce TigerBeetle and its data model, and show how you can use it in your Elixir applications with TigerBeetlex, an Elixir client built upon its official Zig client. After exploring the library's API, we'll dive into its internals. You will learn about the details of how binaries are implemented in the BEAM VM, understand NIF resources, and discover how TigerBeetle's non-blocking API pairs perfectly with Elixir's message-passing. We will also cover some of the tradeoffs in the design of the library (e.g. macros vs code generation, efficient mutability vs familiar immutability) and why these decisions matter for developers aiming to build idiomatic Elixir libraries.
