D3 + Websocket for Live Web Applications

Cowboy allows Erlang to send data to web clients live using Websocket. In this talk I will show how to combine the power of Cowboy and D3.js to create web applications that update live in near real-time, with a very minimal amount of code required.

We will look at the applications Alien and Shaman and how they were built to combine metrics from many different Erlang nodes on a single web page, all this in real time.
