Rusty Klophaus is the author of the Nitrogen Web Framework and a Riak code committer. Rusty typed his first line of Erlang code in early 2008 after trying (and quickly discarding) a number of other functional languages. He now ferociously evangelizes the merits of Erlang to anyone who will listen. Rusty grew up on a farm, earned a degree in Computer Science from Princeton University, spent a summer in Philadelphia as a professional musician, co-founded a .NET software consulting company, and has managed multi-million dollar technology projects. He recently joined Basho Technologies, a company focused on providing large data storage, access, and analysis solutions powered by Erlang.
