So does Ericsson still use Erlang in their recent network hardware etc?
- dnautics 8y agoI recall hearing no, somewhere. I am under the understanding, (don't know where from) that Cisco DOES use Erlang in their stack, and there is a group of people at VMware that does.
- geodel 8y agoThanks. This is something where simple internet search yields nothing much. Possibly because these network switches are proprietary platforms and they do not publish how internals are implemented.

- di4na 8y agoYes. After a few years of ban, Ericsson changed gears. The recent head of tech at Ericsson look at that past as a real miss. All Ericsson 3G switch/router are in Erlang. Ericsson has a small team maintaining erlang and they are the steward of Erlang.
