Growing together with the BEAM

Telia ACE is the leading contact center product in the Nordics, using BEAM's scalability, availability and ease of development to handle calls, sms, mail, chat, social media, and recording for major companies and municipalities. As one of the first adopters of Erlang/OTP for their backend, more than 20 years ago, the ACE team has seen the technology and community grow, and have followed along with impressive growth themselves.

Hans Nahringbauer, recipient of the "Erlang User of the Year" award from the Erlang User Conference 1999 (Code BEAM EU's spiritual predecessor), has been leading the ACE platform for more than 20 years. Stavros Aronis joined them in 2018 as a senior developer and Erlang Solutions consultant to assist with some of their latest projects, integrating with a new call recording and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) framework on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Join this talk from Hans and Stavros to listen about the history, challenges, and exciting ongoing projects of some of the earliest Erlang/OTP enthusiasts!
