The story behind LavinMQ: a conversation with our CEO
I sat down with Carl Hörberg, CEO and founder of 84codes, to talk about the “why’s” behind LavinMQ: a modern message broker we built from the ground up. It’s a story I know well, but one that deserves to be told properly.
In this interview, Carl shares the story behind the project: after years of hosting message brokers, we decided to build our own. He covers what it takes to handle millions of messages per second on a single binary, why we bet on Crystal instead of Go or Rust, and why a great UI matters just as much as performance and resource efficiency.
