I'm curious, and I know this is a random thread to post this question, but how do you handle the fact that the Elixir process might be shut down with regards to necessary persistence of any message queues? Put differently: I consider both message queues and databases in my system to be part of the stateful workloads and the web app part of the stateless workloads (can-be-killed-at-any-time). How do you handle the case where your stateful workload (queueing) now lives within your Elixir process which might be killed at any instance?
