The Erlang Ecosystem - Robert Virding

Erlang is in many ways quite old though many of the problems for which it used are quite modern. The Erlang language and system was designed around a set of requirements for telecom systems. They were distributed, massively concurrent systems which had to scale with demand, be capable of handling massive peak loads and never fail. The Erlang concurrency and error-handling model was developed around these requirements.
This talk will describe the development of the language and the design of systems based on the Erlang look at the BEAM, the Erlang VM, and how it supports the properties of the Erlang language and systems built on top of it. It will also look at the further development with the introduction of new languages and how they can be added into the Erlang environment - the Erlang ecosystem.
