Vancouver Erlang Factory Lite 2012

28 Jul 2012

The 2012 Vancouver Erlang Factory Lite was held at the SFU Harbour Centre on 28th of July. The speakers from companies such as Opscode, Heroku, Basho and Vocalocity gave top notch talks on some of the latest Erlang related problems and technologies. The big subjects this year were the NoSQL databases such as Riak and Erlang in production.
The programme was varied so that developers at different levels of advancement could benefit from attending the conference. We hope we've succeeded at inspiring some newbies to get to know Erlang better as well as managed to raise the interest of our more experienced guests.
As usual, Erlang Factory Lite was a great opportunity to network and exchange ideas. Hope to see you all again next time!
