Building robust servers with Erlang
Martin Logan · 2010
The Building Robust Servers with Erlang tutorial will cover the fundamental concepts needs to write highly fault tolerant servers with Erlang/OTP. In this tutorial you will learn some OTP basics focusing specifically on the gen_server and supervision behaviours. With these behaviours you will build server that is capable of processing requests rapidly and concurrently and recovering in the face of failures large and small. You will ultimately build a fault tolerant server, package it, and deploy it as a running service.
