Cowboy is a small, fast and modern HTTP server for Erlang/OTP.
Apache CouchDB is a seamless multi-master syncing database with an intuitive HTTP/JSON API, designed for reliability.
Ejabberd is a distributed, fault-tolerant technology that allows the creation of large-scale instant messaging applications. The server can reliably support thousands of simultaneous users on a single node and has been designed to provide exceptional standards of fault tolerance.
Rustler is a library for writing Erlang NIFs in safe Rust code meaning there should be no ways to crash the BEAM (Erlang VM). The library provides facilities for generating the boilerplate for interacting with the BEAM, handles encoding and decoding of Erlang terms, and catches rust panics before they unwind into C.
Tsung is a high-performance benchmark framework for various protocols including HTTP, XMPP, LDAP, etc.
Alpaca is a statically typed, strict/eagerly evaluated, functional programming language for the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM).
