Hello,
I am writing an app where I need to synchronize time between two processes, running on two nodes that are not within cluster (and they cannot, by design). I can’t use NTP daemon as I cannot assume anything about host OS configuration. So basically I need something like NTP-per-process or just generic NTP client/server implementation and I will wrap it. Any recommendations on how to do this properly erlang-way or about battle-proven ready-to-use libraries?
The problem I need to resolve is that basically both apps “tick” every 10ms, and send data to each other. There’s a certain time window for which the receiver waits for the data. I have found out that when using :timer.send_interval the timer skews and window moves and receiver starts dropping data as it is considering them arriving too late.
