Description

What can we learn from Erlang for building reliable high concurrency services in Python? This talk will shows some techniques used in Erlang and how they can be used to solve problems in a more efficient way in Python. It will also discuss how Python could evolve accordingly.

Abstract

As the author of many applications and libraries in Erlang and Python I often switch from one to the other during the day. The usage of Erlang definitely changed the way I am coding in Python . This talk will cover some techniques that are used in Erlang and other functional programming languages and how they can be used to solve problems in more performant, robust and/or concise ways than the standard practices in Python. It will also discuss some possible changes to Python and how such changes could improve its usage by the community.
