I’m super happy for this release! 🥳 It brings YOLOX support, custom-trained models, and faster postprocessing thanks to Nx.Defn.

During CodeBeam Europe I will be delivering training: Deploying Elixir on GCP.

Starting with building Docker image, through selecting best GCP service for the use case (including GCE, GKE, Cloud Run) all the way to clustering the app and accessing the Google APIs (including using workload identity on GKE).

If you’re new to the cloud or you’re familiar with other offerings, or you want to understand how Elixir could work in the cloud environment - that training should be useful for you!

Phoenix 1.8.0-rc was released in March 2025 to much excitement in the Elixir community. Highlights included daisyUI, enhancements to phx.gen.auth, and scopes to ensure strong access control. Given the security improvements in the first release candidate, it seems appropriate that the final release of Phoenix 1.8 will include official security documentation.

A lot of Phoenix beginners get confused by contexts. They’re not sure what contexts are, how to use them, or what their contexts should be called.

In my new post I explain contexts as simply as possible. It shouldn’t be difficult, because contexts are, in fact, very simple! The confusion, I think, comes from people overthinking things, and trying to understand contexts as something more complicated than they actually are.

Check out the explanation: https://arrowsmithlabs.com/blog/phoenix-contexts-are-simpler-than-you-think

🚨 We hit 20 million Oban jobs in available state!

In our latest blog post, I dive into:
What caused the spike and why available jobs kept accumulating
How we resolved it using:

• Oban Pro’s ChunkWorker
• Postgres reindexing + VACUUM ANALYZE
• Manual SQL to throttle job flow
• Oban Web’s batch job controls

Plus insights on job argument versioning, queue misconfigurations, and proactive Oban monitoring

Huge thanks to Shannon & Parker Selbert for both building an incredible tool and supporting us live at DORS/CLUC 2025 in Zagreb 🇭🇷
