For stuff like this, we've had it since the 80's: Erlang's (and it's sleek offspring, Elixir) BEAM VM. A virtual machine with concurrent, parallel, and distributed systems in mind? Check. A standard library containing batteries-included solutions to most design and technical challenges you'll run into while building such systems? Check. Tooling for stuff like deployments, diagnostics of running systems, and the ability to pull open a REPL for hands-in-the-meat debugging? Check, Check, Check.
