OTP
summary
Clear claim: OTP is the middleware that gives Erlang/OTP reusable behaviors like gen_server and supervisors, release and upgrade tools, and distribution primitives that produce 4–20× less code in real projects. Concrete tools shown: monitors, unique references, supervision trees, release tooling and a Sicily console prototype; the EU-funded Release project (about €3.5M) targets multi‑core and cluster scaling. Built demos include live failover/takeover and migration visualizers; they work and two customers are already lined up to try them.
