There are a few very large features that BEAM offers that, as far as I can tell, no other industrial language/VM implements. In particular, BEAM is meant for distributed computation.

You can spawn new processes, communicate between processes (which don't have to be on the same computer), sending any kind of data between them including closures.

BEAM also has an error model designed to handle concurrent and distributed failures, e.g. a process may fail and another process (which, again, may or may not be on the same machine) monitoring it may decide to restart it, or to do some recovery, etc.

BEAM builds into it a number of the features for which we use orchestration, observability, just simpler and (generally) more flexible. And this is a platform that has been used in the industry since the 90s.
