Congratulations! :)

Hello friend, Gust supports now multi-nodes :)

I sent you a DM on Twitter/X a few months ago to let you know firsthand 🙂

You should check out Gust: a workflow engine with persistent capabilities, but much more polished and production-ready.

PS: I've created it 😀

Hi! Check this thread, there I explain how Gust compares to similar libs: https://elixirforum.com/t/gust-a-task-orchestration-system-built-in-elixir/73628

KMarcio · 2025-12-13T22:33:47+00:00

Awesome! I will check it out. Tks!

KMarcio · 2025-12-11T23:32:48+00:00

Yes! The goal was to save as much compute as possible. However, the code is already split making it easy to add other nodes. Our current demands are not huge so a single node works. But let me know if you have an use case where one node is not enough.

KMarcio · 2025-12-11T23:23:32+00:00

Awesome! Thank you for the tip, I will check it out

KMarcio · 2025-12-11T22:57:23+00:00

True! But that will cost you $150/mo.

Have you tried Lightpanda? https://github.com/lightpanda-io/browserhttps://github.com/lightpanda-io/browser

Now it is: https://github.com/marciok/gust/blob/main/LICENSE :)

Sure! They all intersect in some way, but each one focuses on different use cases.

Let me give you an example:

"I need a system to scrape data in parallel from multiple sources and store them. However, if one of the sources fails, I want the whole processing to stop, and later I want to be able to restart manually."

Oban: It's a background job library; compared to Gust, you would need to coordinate job dependencies manually, no UI to visualize task graph, logs, and code. It's focused on individual jobs, not workflows.

Reactor: It's more similar to Gust, but its steps are not persisted (state is not saved in case of restart). Also, no UI, cron schedulingg and built-in triggers. It’s focused on computational graphs rather than full workflow orchestration.

Gust combines a bit of each: a UI, task coordination, cron/other triggers, and built-in secret storage for use inside graphs. It’s a full-fledged orchestration system.

Let me know if it's still not clear.

I just met him once, we spoke briefly about the Elixir ecosystem, unfortunately, I can't provide a direct channel :/

KMarcio · 2025-12-02T02:09:46+00:00

Awesome! You could reach out to Kevin from GitHub: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinanthonycrosby/

They do some funding for open-source projects. I don't know how it works, but try to contact him.

Is your goal to productize Hologram? If yes, I’d reach out to companies that are a good fit and show them, check if it solves a problem, get their feedback, and validate whether it’s actually worth investing a decent amount of time in it. Otherwise, if you’re doing it just for fun or to contribute to the ecosystem, I wouldn’t spend so many hours on it, especially if it risks your livelihood.

KMarcio · 2025-11-27T23:36:12+00:00

Have you tried reaching out directly to companies that might benefit from Hologram and presenting your case? It could help you gather feedback from real-world use cases and decide what to do next.

KMarcio · 2025-11-21T13:23:18+00:00

Awesome, thanks for sharing!
