Stack:

Front-End:

Web API Layer:
- End State: Probably Phoenix [TODO]
- Current State: Phoenix web framework
  - POST: organ_intake_request -> tracking_number & metadata
Backend Services:
- End State: Probably OCaml CLI [TODO]
- Current State:
  - Matching CLI: OCaml Rule Engine
  - Scheduling CLI & Backend Service?: OCaml Rule Engine? [TODO]
Cache:

Tradeoffs:

OCaml Pros:

Formal Verification
Modularity (Module Namespacing, OpenTransplant Library versioned separate)
Strongly Typed
High-level with easy to read interfaces (clinicians and policy people will appreciate that)
