DESCRIPTION:Note: Please note the venue change! We are fortunate this mon
 th to have noted tech luminary\, Erlang Solutions founder and O'Reilly a
 uthor Francesco Cesarini join us.  http://www.oreilly.com/pub/au/3373 Ya
 le Professor Alan Perlis once wrote\, “A language that doesn't affect th
 e way you think about programming\, is not worth knowing.” To really app
 reciate the power of the actor model\, no matter if you are using Go\, R
 ust\, AKKA or Erlang\, you need to learn to think concurrently. Erlang h
 as for decades been leading the way in concurrent thinking and developer
 s from different communities and backgrounds have a lot to learn from it
 s approach. This talk illustrates by example how embracing the Erlang wa
 y of thinking about problems leads to scalable and fault-tolerant design
 s. It will describe three ways of clustering Erlang nodes within the ser
 ver side domain\, describing how these systems have evolved as the concu
 rrency model and the underlying hardware got more powerful. Through thes
 e case studies\, we will describe how Erlang\, and more specifically\, c
 oncurrency was done in 1995 when the limit of processes was 30\,000\, wi
 th an evolution as to how concurrency is used and applied today\, when t
 he limit of simultaneous processes in in the magnitude of millions per v
 irtual machine.\n\nTags: meetup:event=202251342\, meetup:group=Portland-
