Ruby vs Elixir: which is better for real-time apps?

The question is about Ruby .

Answer:

Elixir (with Phoenix) is built on the Erlang VM, enabling real-time, concurrent, resilient web apps (e.g., chat and notifications) that scale well. Ruby, especially with Rails, is not optimised for constant real-time data streams. For real-time use cases, Elixir generally performs better.
