by Martin Logan, Eric Merritt, and Richard Carlsson
Erlang and OTP in Action teaches you the concepts of concurrent programming and the use of Erlang’s message-passing model. It walks you through progressively more interesting examples, building systems in Erlang and integrating them with C/C++, Java, and .NET applications, including SOA and web architectures.
##about the technology
Erlang is an adaptable and fault tolerant functional programming language originally designed for the unique demands of the telecom industry. With Erlang/OTP’s interpreter, compiler, database server, and libraries, developers are finding they can satisfy tough uptime and performance requirements in all kinds of other industries.
###What’s inside
- Build apps that…
- Never deadlock on a shared resource
- Keep running, even during code upgrades
- Recover gracefully from errors
- Scale unchanged from one to many processors
- Handle many simultaneous connections, and
- Maintain fast response times
- About the reader
- This book is written for readers new to Erlang and interested in creating practical applications.

This is a great book to get into OTP from an erlang perspective.
Releases are a bit outdated if I remember correctly. Today there are better tools today (rebar3 + relx) but it goes through how to manually do them.

Is this the go to book for getting more experienced with OTP Patterns and designs or is there a better alternative? I’ve read little book of OTP back in 2016 and Designing for scalability (Cessarini) last year if that makes a difference.
Also - wondering if any thing else is outdated in the book (the above comment stated that releases were a bit out of date)
