Here's the actual slides to my talk:

http://www.slideshare.net/argv0/distributed-erlang-systems-i...

The video should be up sometime soon on http://erlang-factory.com, or you can follow me at http://twitter.com/argv0 and I'll be sure to link to the video of the talk when it comes out.

There's also a lot of similarly interesting content on http://blog.basho.com


It was a very good talk. When you read the blog entry realize it was live blogged and that is why the English is the way it is - my fingers can only move so fast.


This is a handy set of slides, I am seeing a lot of the same idioms, one thing I dont agree with is

"remote shell works great"

I have found remote shell to be pretty useless, the only time I find them useful is when you do something that generated too much io to deal with, run_erl / to_erl (or screen) lets you attach / detach from a running deamon, you can read rb reports and io works (unlike remsh)


Does Ericsson still use Erlang and to what degree?

EDIT: "Erlang is currently used in several Ericsson telecom infrastructure products." (http://www.ericsson.com/article/open_source_20100211163350)
