These numbers come from Cisco. What exactly is inaccurate? What Erlang us used for is in the first part of the talk, and just as impressive. They used the right tool for the job.pic.twitter.com/QKKve59Qxo

The statement is not untrue, but is very misleading... see https://twitter.com/dpp/status/1003280667206037505 … I could substitute Python or JVM on the slide and it would be equally true.

Yes, any language in the top 5 of the Tiobe index would be expected. Erlang got in thanks to netconf and the Tail-f acquisition. It handles configuration & orchestration. For a language with 0.5% of the user base (up from 0.3%), we are entitled to be pretty dam proud of it :-)

This makes me want to pick up erlang again.

Only for that? :)

I used to use erlang and was learning it, but never got far enough to do major projects. This just reminds me of it’s amazing power as a language :)

Meh ... so basically one nine. I thought the Erlang community prided itself as a nine nines platform.
