In my initial design I chose Elixir as the language that fits best. Via the BEAM VM and the Erlang OTP it can easily handle a massive amount of requests, where some will surely fail and it would nonetheless keep on running almost indefinitely. In addition I can live patch the running system, scale it up, inspect it etc.
