Life ain't perfect. Sometimes, you need to use Ruby, Java, or even (gasp!) PHP. Once you finish making those gagging noises, it's a good idea to strategize ways to get Erlang back into your life as soon as possible. Knowing how to make Erlang play nicely with other languages is a good first step.
In this talk, Rusty will discuss three different approaches to cross-language communication in Erlang: REST, Protocol Buffers, and Bert-RPC. He will cover basic philosophies of the different approaches, usage (with code samples), and tradeoffs.
Rusty Klophaus is a Senior Software Engineer at Basho Technologies. He works on Riak, a distributed, fault-tolerant datastore modeled after Amazon's Dynamo architecture.
Before joining Basho, Rusty launched an Erlang-based startup; before that he managed multi-million dollar technology products and guided multiple project teams at an Internet advertising company based in New York City.
When he’s not hacking, Rusty plays guitar and organizes the Hacker News Meetup Group of Washington, DC.
