Erlang processes are a first class object. Data is immutable. There's a special syntax for sending and receiving messages between processes. I would say that in some ways this is simply incomparable to java but I think this concurrency model is probably the easiest and simplest to work with of any concurrency model. There are obviously drawbacks like with anything but for a lot of situations it's an excellent choice.
