The Joy of Erlang

saved on 2011-08-05 17:17:29

tagged with

In the movie Avatar, there's this big badass bird-brained pterodactyl thing called a Toruk that the main character must learn to ride in order to regain the trust of the blue people. As a general rule, Toruks do not like to be ridden, but if you fight one, subdue it, and then link your Blue Man ponytail to the Toruk's ptero-tail, you get to own the thing for life. Owning a Toruk is awesome; it's like owning a flying car you can control with your mind, which comes in handy when battling large chemical companies, impressing future colleagues, or delivering a pizza. But learning to ride a Toruk is dangerous, and very few people succeed.

ACM SIGPLAN Erlang Workshop 2011, Tokyo, Japan

Erlang is a concurrent, distributed functional programming language aimed at systems with requirements on massive concurrency, soft real time response, fault tolerance, and high availability. It has been available as open source for over 10 years, creating a community that actively contributes to its already existing rich set of libraries and applications. Originally created for telecom applications, its usage has spread to other domains including e-commerce, banking, databases, and computer telephony and messaging. Erlang programs are today among the largest applications written in any functional programming language. These applications offer new opportunities to evaluate functional programming and functional programming methods on a very large scale and suggest new problems for the research community to solve. This workshop will bring together the open source, academic, and industrial programming communities of Erlang. It will enable participants to familiarize themselves with recent developments on new techniques and tools tailored to Erlang, novel applications, draw lessons from users' experiences and identify research problems and common areas relevant to the practice of Erlang and functional programming.

Highly Scalable Erlang Web Apps » By Matthew Sacks » Erlang, Featured

saved on 2011-07-16 17:21:36

Erlang is not well known for it’s ability for writing Web applications on the front-end; however, it can be incredibly powerful for writing scalable and highly scalable. Yurii Rashkovskii, creator of Beam.js and Erlagner.org is helping to change that with a laundry list of Erlang open source projects and libraries which make writing powerful and scalable Web applications back possible in Erlang. Yurii Rashkovskii recently presented on some of the powerful frameworks he has presented at the Erlang Factory in London and shares some of his projects and their powerful abilities.

Ankur Blogoyal | Node.js is backwards

But, the people involved should be straight about the fact that their system is an approximation of what Erlang provides. It’s not “in some ways, a similar view.” Instead, it’s the same view, just executed in a different language that doesn’t support event-driven I/O natively.

Erlang/OTP and Unicode | ボリスくん

There is an interesting question/topic on stackoverflow about “Convert Erlang binary string to lowercase” where I tried to start as a critic: Is it possible to convert Erlang binary UTF-8 string (like <<"HELLO">>) to lowercase without converting it to list and back?

Erlang is not a Concurrent Functional Programming Language - Java to the Limit

saved on 2011-05-24 15:59:47

tagged with

First of all, Erlang introduces mechanisms to contain and manage faults. When a problem happens in an Erlang system, it doesn't take down everything with it. This is hard to grasp for a Java programmer where you're used to a bad null pointer error or something that will take down the entire application. Erlang is more like an operating system which itself runs inside an OS-level process: if one component faults, then its resources are properly reclaimed and only that component is shut down.

EUnit - a Lightweight Unit Testing Framework for Erlang

saved on 2011-05-24 13:50:42

tagged with

EUnit builds on ideas from the family of unit testing frameworks for Object Oriented languages that originated with JUnit by Beck and Gamma (and Beck's previous framework SUnit for Smalltalk). However, EUnit uses techniques more adapted to functional and concurrent programming, and is typically less verbose than its relatives.

Erlang App. Management with Rebar

saved on 2011-05-24 13:40:18

Rebar is a build and packaging tool for Erlang applications. It is implemented in Erlang and the only dependency is the Erlang Virtual Machine, so it can work as a stand-alone escript in your project. Rebar was created by Dave Smith from Basho, creators of Riak. In this tutorial I’ll be creating a sample application, building it and generating a release for it, all of this with Rebar.
