Solving the right problem

[I Gusti Ngurah Oka Prinarjaya]

I recommended you to use Erlang.

Erlang can save you from nowadays complex microservice architecture. If you
not use Erlang, it will become so so so fckn complex architecture, too many
external tools to wired and manage.
Erlang is all in one toolbox.
You need Redis? Erlang have ETS and or Mnesia,
You need Consul (services discovery) in order all of your micro-services
able to communicate to each other? Oh come on.. Erlang is distributed by
default. you can use rpc:call() or spawn() process in other server, or send
message RemoteNodePid ! {Your, Message}

ALL tools nowadays are mimicking Erlang's features
