• Erlang Is Our Superpower: How Collecta Uses Erlang

  by Jack Moffitt

  Collecta is a real-time search engine that allows users and developers to access enormous of amounts of information at extremely low latencies. Our system is almost entirely Erlang powered, making use of ejabberd, Webmachine, CouchDB, Riak, RabbitMQ, as well as our own Erlang projects, and is deployed over more than a hundred machines.

  I will talk about why Collecta choose to focus our development on the Erlang language and why our problem domain is well suited to Erlang's strengths. Search encompasses a large number of problems, but we find that Erlang excels at solving many of them. I'll also describe our general architecture as well as the reasoning behind several of our technology choices.

• What is messaging and why should you care?

  by Alexis Richardson and Tony Garnock-Jones

  Alexis will be presenting on RabbitMQ, an Erlang implementation of AMQP, the emerging standard for high performance enterprise messaging. Erlang is well known delivering a highly scalable and stable environment for applications that involve messaging. When JP Morgan Chase and others introduced AMQP, a new standard l4 protocol for busisness messaging and integration, Erlang seemed an obvious choice. This talk will explain the business rationale of this decision in detail and describe the technology and architecture of the ensuing product, RabbitMQ. Today, RabbitMQ is used in solutions across multiple languages and platforms such as Java, Linux, C# on .net, Python and of course Erlang. For people who want to benefit what Erlang brings to the table, products that implement a protocol as their API seem to be delivering value.
