Session "Bringing Erlang into your C# Shop: a How-to"

OK... you've heard the Erlang success stories, you know the sweet spots, and you're convinced that Erlang is for you. Where does that leave you as a C# developer? In a pretty good spot actually. A team of C# and Erlang developers is a force to be reckoned with because Erlang and .NET are complements--each is lousy at what the other is exceptional at. Realizing this can save you and your company a lot of time, money and headaches. Many C# developers write both JavaScript and SQL scripts; adding Erlang to the mix should be just as natural. So how is it done? What are the best interop strategies? What are the development tools? Can it all be done on Windows? How about unit testing and deployment? What are the risks? How can they be avoided?
