Erlang (/ ˈ ɜːr l æ ŋ / UR-lang) is a general-purpose, concurrent, functional high-level programming language, and a garbage-collected runtime system.The term Erlang is used interchangeably with Erlang/OTP, or Open Telecom Platform (OTP), which consists of the Erlang runtime system, several ready-to-use components (OTP) mainly written in Erlang, and a set of design principles for Erlang ...
Bitcask is an Erlang application that provides an API for storing and retrieving key/value data into a log-structured hash table.The design owes a lot to the principles found in log-structured file systems and draws inspiration from a number of designs that involve log file merging.
A function signature consists of the function prototype. It specifies the general information about a function like the name, scope and parameters. Many programming languages use name mangling in order to pass along more semantic information from the compilers to the linkers. In addition to mangling, there is an excess of information in a ...
The name ejabberd stands for Erlang Jabber Daemon (Jabber being a former name for XMPP) and is written in lowercase only, as is common for daemon software. ejabberd is free software, distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL-2.0-or-later. As of 2009, it is one of the most popular open source applications written in Erlang. [4]
Elixir is a functional, concurrent, high-level general-purpose programming language that runs on the BEAM virtual machine, which is also used to implement the Erlang programming language. [3] Elixir builds on top of Erlang and shares the same abstractions for building distributed, fault-tolerant applications.
OTP is a collection of useful middleware, libraries, and tools written in the Erlang programming language.It is an integral part of the open-source distribution of Erlang. . The name OTP was originally an acronym for Open Telecom Platform, which was a branding attempt before Ericsson released Erlang/OTP as open sou

In computer science, message passing is a technique for invoking behavior (i.e., running a program) on a computer.The invoking program sends a message to a process (which may be an actor or object) and relies on that process and its supporting infrastructure to then select and run some appropriate code.
