Hi,

I have seen people using both event socket and erlang to control freeSWITCH externally.

What is the pros and cons of using event socket vs erlang?

It depends on if you want to use erlang or not. The erlang module provides most of the event socket functionality plus a couple extras (dynamic XML bindings ala xml_curl, intelligent message delivery, etc). If you're not already planning to use erlang, it's probably better to dig out the relevant event socket library module for your langague instead. Andrew - author of the erlang module
