Back in October 2012 Well-Typed and Haskell expert Duncan Coutts delivered a talk on 'Cloud Haskell' at the 2K12 edition of the Haskell eXchange. Cloud Haskell takes Erlang's successful approach to distributed concurrency and implements it in Haskell as a library. We will look at what this means and what possibilities it opens up. You should also get a flavour of what distributed programming in Haskell is like. The initial Cloud Haskell idea and a prototype implementation were introduced last year. Since then we have been working on a new from-scratch implementation with a focus on robustness and flexibility Watch the video on the Skills Matter website - http://bit.ly/VB9tcy
