I don’t know it well, but appears the value prop is more “we’ll replace your cloud hosting provider” rather than just being a database. As such, I wouldn’t expect BEAM projects to be in their audience.
That being said, Elixir would be a great choice to build a similar platform.
Strictly as a database, it’s a tough sell for me to be honest. There is no concurrency (in the transactional sense of the word) and migration support looks light.

Edit: haha, didn’t see you already linked the youtube video, my bad
Can recommend though

I watched a talk about it when they first announced Bitcraft, and the very first thing I thought was: Is this built with Elixir/Erlang? It turns out it wasn’t, but the idea is still super cool.
I’ve played around with ECS a bit, and it’s super fun; it’s a shame we don’t use more outside of games. TBH, I had almost forgotten about it, but this video made me reconsider taking a stab at it in the future for some projects where I was planning to use Elixir (will help reduce the boilerplate and make it more AI-friendly - fewer moving pieces equals fewer problems).

There’s an ECS library for Elixir - GitHub - ecsx-framework/ECSx: An Entity-Component-System framework for Elixir · GitHub . I’m using it on a personal project.

I’m aware! I also built one myself: GitHub - thiagomajesk/genesis: An Entity Component System (ECS) library for Elixir focused on easy of use and ergonomics. · GitHub (it’s a different ECS pattern interpretation) - I was using it to build a game
