Media Streaming in the Functional World

This conference talk from Lambda Days 2024 explores how media streaming can be implemented in functional programming languages, specifically through the Membrane framework in Elixir. Discover the rationale behind developing a media streaming solution in a functional language when this domain is traditionally associated with low-level, imperative programming. Learn about the multimedia world fundamentals before diving into the benefits and challenges of bringing media streaming capabilities to Elixir and functional programming paradigms. Follow Mateusz Front's 21-minute presentation as he shares practical insights from leading the development of the Membrane framework.
