  • description: Background Jobs with Elixir: Oban in the Real World - Noelia Lencina | ElixirConf EU 2026 -- -- -- This talk was recorded at ElixirConf EU 2026. Check our upcoming events at https://elixirconf.eu/ Background jobs are essential for engineers. But in an ecosystem where OTP is readily available, where does a library like Oban fit? More importantly, what happens when you need to process ten million jobs a day? In this talk Noelia Lencina explores when to use Oban instead of pure GenServers or Broadway. We will look at real production challenges such as rate limiting for external APIs and managing job distribution across a cluster. You will also learn practical ways to maintain Postgres health under a high volume of jobs. Discover how to handle index bloat and ensure transactional integrity while keeping your systems running smoothly and predictably. -- -- -- Let's keep in touch!
