Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only! Grab it Explore a conference talk that delves into the architectural challenges and solutions for large-scale pure functional systems, using the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) as a case study. Learn how the speakers, Jeffrey M. Young, Sylvain Henry, and John Ericson, identify violations of key functional programming principles within GHC's architecture. Discover insights on applying Domain-Driven Design concepts to improve maintainability, flexibility, and effectiveness in pure functional architectures. Gain valuable engineering perspective on best practices for functional software architects working on industrial-strength systems. Understand the transition of Haskell from a research language to a production-ready tool for large-scale development, and the architectural considerations that come with this evolution.
