ABOUT CODE BEAM LITE ITALY

Code BEAM Lite Italy, is about discovering the future of the Erlang and Elixir ecosystems. It brings together developers as a community to share knowledge & ideas, learn from each other and inspire to invent the future.

The conference is co-organised by Coders51

This one day conference focuses on real-world applications of Erlang, Elixir and the BEAM - all within the context of high-performance and massively scalable distributed systems. Join us on 22 March in beautiful Bologna, Italy.

 

A RICH HISTORY

Code BEAM Lite conferences replaces Erlang Factory Lite conferences, and are now part of the Code Sync family of tech conferences. Check our past conferences by visiting our old website, but do come back here as we’ll be posting more details and the old website will fade away.

Such great heights

If you don't have a hammer, nothing looks like a nail. Concurrency in the BEAM is a great fit for a lot of problems, but it's often overlooked, because many of us have worked for a long time without having such a hammer in our tool box. By doing so, we may have settled for improvisations in place of a more appropriate tool.TBC
