This post named Switcher was interesting.

I want to scale well above 10,000 users. I want load balancing, fault, tolerance, failover, a database that lets me store objects without writing a lot of code, etc. With all the bells and whistles that Allegro CL provides it does not help me with the above and Erlang does. And it’s free too.

All to do with Poker code? Perhaps not really, but follow the articles within the post . Some interesting reading there.

So which one are you?

Some very nice characterisations there, have to go through the list and see which one suits best
