Languages on BEAM, the Erlang virtual machine

Re:Languages on BEAM, the Erlang virtual machine by nerdywordy on Friday January 20, 2017 @03:47PM (#13446852)

My company's first choice is always Azure since outside of my team we're C# head to toe. Though after skimming through a few deployment articles I might push for a Heroku deploy.

I can honestly say I've not been this excited about a language in quite a while. Working with Go is pretty straightforward... but it's a complete bore. The more I dig into Elixir the more I desire to use it full-time.

I think that with proper deploy automation (e.g. Ansible) and the right approach (avoid hot-code updates unless your REALLY need them) you are going to get a pretty solid deploy experience, no matter what your target deploy platform is. Just throw in an HAProxy for rolling deploys and you are ready to go!

If you need any specific help, feel free to contact me!
