What you need should be a language/framework to better model the complex state of your system, and handle distributing processing, monitoring, fault tolerance, recovery and retries. Consider a functional programming language with immutability and pattern matching, which should help a lot.

> Consider a functional programming language with immutability and pattern matching, which should help a lot. So Erlang then

  Erlang is not particularly performant, and it seems like what the top comment is describing requires something faster.

    You only use Erlang for the orchestration part. Probably Fortran or something for the actual number crunching.

  I'm suggesting Ocaml. ^__^ It doesn't have something like OTP (there are libraries like LWT for concurrency and IPC tho) but allegedly should have good math performances, from what I recall the last time I've played with the "big languages shootout" game...
