How to use data spanning multiple data sources in Elixir

Below is a reprint of the article I wrote for the Rekki Medium page. REKKI builds tools that help people along the restaurant supply chain do their jobs better. We have a free mobile app that lets restaurants order and chat with suppliers, and a web-based tool for suppliers that helps them process orders, manage product codes and catalogues, and communicate more easily with their customers. The majority of REKKI’s backend is written in Elixir, working hand in hand with services written in Go and Node. The Elixir services handle most of what the user sees in the app like the real-time communication with the supplier and the status of the orders.
