Building a Scalable E-commerce Framework and Erlang for Embedded Devices (Stockholm, Sweden)
Our next Stockholm Erlang User Group Meeting will take place on Wednesday, 26th May. This will be a special meeting with two talks. The first talk will be on Building a Scalable E-commerce Framework and the speaker will be Michael Nordström. The second talk will be on Erlang for Embedded Devices and the speakers will be Gustav Simonsson, Henrik Nord, Fredrik Andersson, Niclas Axelsson, Fabian Bergström.
The meeting will start at 18:00 in Klarna offices - Norra Stationsgatan 61; 113 43 Stockholm.
In order to attend this free event, you have to register. Registering allows us to plan refreshments accordingly, provide security with a list of names and ensure we have enough space. The places are limited so if you want to attend this meeting register asap.
Building a Scalable E-commerce Framework Abstract:
Each year the University of Uppsala gives a project course for computer science students. The project specification is given by an industrial partner, in our case the company was Klarna.
During the period of four months we were to developed a scalable e-commerce framework using Linux, Erlang, Nitrogen and Riak. (The LENR "leaner" stack.) We were a group of 9 students with no experience in project management and no prior knowledge about Erlang.
We will talk about our experiences with Erlang and how they compare to those of other languages, why making an e-commerce framework in Erlang is a good idea, and how you can get scalability almost for free. We will also talk a little bit about our experiences with Nitrogen and Riak.
Erlang for Embedded Devices Abstract
The Embedded Erlang Project at Erlang Solutions currently includes three different, but related, master theses. The first thesis aims to strip down Erlang/OTP to a minimal release with a small memory footprint. This will run on the results of the second thesis; a Linux-based platform tailored for running Erlang on embedded devices. The third thesis explores models of mobile data-oriented networks for use in embedded devices, including Erlang-based implementations. The presentation will consist of a brief summary, the goals and the current progress of each thesis, as well as some brief discussion on how they can all come together as a deployable package.
