Wow! Cisco ships 2 million devices per year with Erlang on them. 90% of all internet traffic goes through Erlang controlled nodes. Top 8 Service Providers & Network Equipment Providers use Erlang to control their systems - Johan Bevemyr @ #CodeBEAMSTO Beat that!

This number is wildly inaccurate. Yes... there are beam vms on cisco devices, but if they were removed, the devices would still function.

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.

David "Bear Feeder" Pollak @dppReplying to @ShriramKMurthi @cmeikUmmm... no. Speaking for the security firewalls (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/security/firewalls/index.html … ), we use RabbitMQ on our devices. Some of the NSO stuff is erlang based (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/solutions/service-provider/solutions-cloud-providers/network-services-orchestrator-solutions.html … ) and that controls (distributes updates to) routers. /cc@w_cazzola1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
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 :-)
