Why Erlang? by Trevor Brown (@Stratus3D)

With web applications today there is an increasing need for systems that can scale up easily and tolerate the network, hardware, and software errors that occur at scale. Building such systems is challenging, if not impossible, to do in many popular programming languages today. Erlang was designed for telephone systems where uptime requirements were law, and as such was designed to solve these challenges. In this talk Trevor will show how Erlang can be used to solve some of the most challenging problems software developers face today. He will introduce concurrency constructs that Erlang provides and show how they can be used to build reliable and scalable applications. This talk will focus mostly on the new concepts introduced by Erlang, but Trevor will also do a few demos and show code samples to illustrate some of the concepts.
