Their technical background primarily resided in the realm of financial services, utilizing C#. Previously, they had also gained experience in developing large-scale retail systems. However, as they entered the domain of media system development around 2010, the notion of "big" underwent a profound transformation. They went from a dozen servers driving an online bank to, at times, thousands of servers delivering live media across the globe.

They embarked on a search for technologies that could fulfill their requirements. Erlang emerged as an incredibly well-suited solution. This marked the starting point of their journey, they strongly believe that Erlang represents best in breed for high availability and high scalability.

Looking ahead, they would like to promote Purerl and the benefits of strong typing on the BEAM. They proudly shared that Purerl has been successfully used in production for many years now, comes with an entire supporting ecosystem (from PureScript) and offers very straightforward FFI into Erlang itself. They recall that the adoption from within the PureScript ecosystem is encouraging (it is the second most popular backend behind Javascript) and they would love to see members of the Erlang community benefit from it as well.

Notably, id3as actively contributes to the growth of the PureScript and Purerl ecosystems. They have written and open sourced numerous libraries such as Stetson (type safe binding on top of Cowboy) and Pinto (strongly typed version of OTP constructs such as gen server and gen statem).
