elixir-horde/horde

Horde is a distributed process management library for Elixir that provides a distributed registry and dynamic supervisor to coordinate state and child processes across a cluster of nodes. It ensures eventual consistency of cluster membership and process supervision using CRDT-based state synchronization, supporting pluggable transport backends like Erlang's default distribution or Partisan. The system includes comprehensive testing and examples demonstrating how to share data and manage processes in a distributed environment.

How it got here

2018 · Distributed cluster infrastructure and testing

This period focused on implementing the core distributed cluster and registry infrastructure using CRDT-based state synchronization, alongside establishing comprehensive test coverage for the new modules. The release also included dependency updates, performance benchmarking, and example applications to demonstrate the new distributed capabilities.

2019–2026 · Partisan integration and test coverage

This period focused on extending cluster support to include Plausible's Partisan peer service, introducing pluggable transport backends and a dedicated node listener for non-Erlang distributions. Concurrently, the project expanded its test infrastructure with new helper modules and stress tests to validate distributed behaviors and cluster management features.

About this page

  • The description of this project is derived from its own commit history, not from its README.
  • The score is its highest published measurement, taken on 6 August 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
  • Measured at commit d5c941f08d — the exact code this score is about.
  • Scored under rubric rubric-2026.08.19. Score the same commit under that rubric and you get the same number.
