Curious that there is not a single mention of Erlang or RabbitMQ, which follow patterns of distributed systems quite nicely.

- whycombagator 6y agoAre you referring to the table which presents categories & then examples of technology that falls under said category? If so, the examples are indeed not in any way exhaustive. But I don’t believe they are intended to be, nor could/should be.
- davydog187 6y agoSure, but arguably RabbitMQ has a much wider adoption and success story as a message broker. Also showing Akka as an actor system, but not mentioning Erlang
- whycombagator 6y agoOkay...to restate what I already have: I'm honestly not sure why not having RabbitMQ/Erlang or X tech listed as an example of Y is such a big deal - especially when the other examples are fine examples.
- nickserv 6y agoThe target audience seems to be enterprise developers, running JVM applications and needing an introduction to distributed computing. Very unlikely these sorts will jump on the BEAM-wagon. But completely agree that it should be mentioned, in my view Erlang is probably the most elegant approach to the problem.
