Just a few points came to my mind to add to Matt's answer, Erlang gives you built-in node distribution across clusters. Erlang's concurrency model is Actor Model, Node.js's is Event Loop, So Erlang can also give you simple robustness model via Supervisors, and fail-fast pattern Rate of memory leaks in Node.js apps are more than Erlang ones, but Node.js ecosystem is largers and more to the edge of technology Erlang has some very nice language level features, like better List comprehensions, atoms, pattern matching, ... missing in Javascript Node.js is more rapid in development than Erlang
