A bit off-topic: Is there an overview of OTP's design and usage patterns that assumes the reader has minimal Erlang knowledge? I have no Erlang experience, but I am interested in what makes OTP so revered.



Thanks for sharing. I found the second video to be very entertaining as someone who hasn't seen a lot of Erlang in action. At 32:38 in the video he mentions some issues that plague BEAM which cause some engineers to eschew its use in production. Do you know what issues he could be referring to?



It doesn't provide much detail but "Erlang: The Movie" is definitely worth a watch. It's only 10 minutes long, made by the creators, and is very 80s.
