Erlang on OSv
summary
Erlang/OTP compiles and runs on OSv as a proof‑of‑concept: Erlang/OTP on OSv uses OSv’s Linux ABI compatibility and the capstan image tool, JVM apps run by copying JARs, native C/C++ needs PIC and shared‑object builds, and many OTP ports must become linked‑in drivers because no fork/exec exists. OSv boots in about a second, image size ~20 MB (Linux kernel ~70 MB), thread count ~127, and several common Erlang apps are ported though DNS, port mapper and some monitoring tools require patches.
