Comment on Ask HN: What equivalents of Erlang/OTP exist for other languages?parent

Comments

None of those are equivalent. In fact they don't actually address the issue.

OTP is described thusly by "Learn You Some Erlang":

"OTP contains functions to safely spawn and initialize processes, send messages to them in a fault-tolerant manner and many other things."

Also, "supervisors are one of the most useful parts of OTP you'll get to use." And, "an OTP application specifically uses OTP behaviours for its processes, and then wraps them in a very specific structure that tells the VM how to set everything up and then tear it down."

Given that, I don't see how you could think Storm isn't at all related. (I never said it was equivalent, just very similar goals.)
