&gt; ECC memory ... remote management ... often considered necessary in a server environment<p>Do note that an idiomatic Erlang cluster (where the distribution of the system is used to achieve fault-tolerance, rather than for higher throughput) doesn&#x27;t strictly need ECC memory (though, obviously, it wouldn&#x27;t hurt.)<p>Also, such a system <i>should</i> be plenty manageable on its own—insofar as even an Erlang unikernel makes for a relatively ops-friendly system. There&#x27;s little &quot;remote management&quot; can do that can&#x27;t be done from an Erlang remsh. (Erlang even offers easy ways to expose e.g. SNMP MIBs.)<p>If you&#x27;re talking about being able to re-image the system into being a completely non-Erlang system remotely, that might be hard—but a cluster-of-inexpensive-low-power-nodes setup like this only really has this one niche use-case to begin with, so I&#x27;m not sure what else you&#x27;d want to change it into.
