Craig Smith of O'Reilly asked me to do a blog on Erlang/OPT for the O'Reilly GMT website at the back end of the year. Well one thing and another, between us we finally got it posted.
The blog takes the discussion about Erlang/OTP away from its traditional technical territory and makes the business case for its use.
Hypernumbers have published a white paper entitled Using Erlang In A Web Start-Up. This white paper evaluates Erlang against the standard LAMP stack and a conventional Enterprise application stack.
It was originally published anonymously on Phil Wadler's blog under the title Erlang Service Architectures.
Hypernumbers will be giving a couple of talks at Bar Camp Scotland on the 1st and 2nd February 2008. Details here.
continue reading ...10th January, 08During the alpha developers release of hypernumbers we are looking for discussion with developers that are interested in the new platform.
On tuesday the 20th(this week) we will be hosting a developers meetup at the erlang training and consulting offices (map here) at 6:30pm.
We will do a quick presentation of the work so far, then it will be open discussion on what developers would expect from the platform, and applications they would like to write using it. Afterwards Im sure a few people will be along for a few drinks and more discussion.
If you are interested in attending, give Gordon a quick email at gordon@hypernumbers.com, and this is an open invitation so invite anyone who might be interested, its not erlang specific so if you are into any flavour of development come along.
See you on Tuesday!
