Order Revealing Encryption for Cloud Data

My Journey to Elixir and Rate Limiting library

Lenfree Yeung

Lenfree will talk about how he got started with Elixir, along with the things he likes and dislikes. Then he'll show off his solution and talk about his learnings for a rate limiting library, which he developed.
