Sponsor @niranjanaryan
I build open-source infrastructure for distributed Elixir: cluster discovery, HTTP/3, content-addressed storage, and multi-cloud provisioning.
The Stack
| Package | Hex | Role |
|---|---|---|
| dusk | :dusk |
Zenoh + Iroh cluster, BLAKE3/S5/S3 storage, CLI |
| ingot_cluster | :ingot_cluster |
Iroh + Zenoh cluster, libcluster strategies, FLAME backend |
| zeiroh | :zeiroh |
Phoenix FLAME overlay for Iroh and Zenoh |
| gale | :gale |
Phoenix HTTP/3 (QUIC) adapter |
| orian | :orian |
BLAKE3 / S3 / S5 object transfer |
| crucible | :crucible |
Multi-cloud provisioner (AWS, Fly, K8s, Docker, Hetzner, …) |
All packages are MIT-licensed, tested, and published on Hex.
Why Sponsor?
Maintained, production-oriented primitives
The Elixir BEAM is great for fault tolerance, but production systems still need:
- Cluster membership that doesn't depend on a single broker
- HTTP/3 for mobile, latency-sensitive, and multiplexed clients
- Content-addressed storage with integrity verification
- Multi-cloud boot without vendor lock-in
This stack provides those primitives as libraries, not services. You run them; you own the data plane.
What funding enables
| Area | Impact |
|---|---|
| Zig NIF maintenance | Keep BLAKE3, XXH3, key-match, and QPACK performant across OTP releases |
| HTTP/3 interop | Test against browsers, CDNs, proxies; fix QUIC edge cases |
| Cluster protocols | Iroh/Zenoh membership, libcluster strategies, live discovery |
| CI/CD | Multi-OTP/Elixir version testing on Ubuntu, macOS, Windows |
| Documentation | Hex docs, benchmarks, EVAL/SCALING guides, migration guides |
| Grant-friendly sustainability | Dedicated time for security reviews, dependency audits, and release cadence |
Sponsorship Tiers
| Monthly | Name | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| $5 | Thank you | Name in sponsors list |
| $25 | User | Priority issue triage on all packages |
| $100 | Team | Private Q&A on architecture + deploy |
| $500 | Partner | Roadmap input + priority feature requests |
One-time sponsorships are also welcome.
Grants & Organizational Support
I'm open to:
- Research grants — protocol-level work (QUIC, Iroh, Zenoh interop)
- Maintenance contracts — security patches, OTP/Elixir version bumps
- Feature sponsorships — HTTP/3 server push, live membership, remote boot
- Conference/workshop sponsorship — speaking, training, or co-authoring RFCs
If your organization depends on any of these packages, funding keeps them independent and maintained.
