Elixir was aimed at large-scale sites and apps. Elixir uses features of [[Ruby (programming language)|Ruby]], Erlang, and [[Clojure]] to develop a "high-concurrency" and "low-latency" language. Elixir was designed to handle large data volumes. Elixir is used in the telecommunication, eCommerce, and finance industries.<ref>{{ cite web |url=https://www.welcometothejungle.com/en/articles/btc-elixir-jose-valim/|title=Behinde the code: The One Who Created Elixir | access-date=2019-11-25}}</ref>
