OTP is the means by which the programming language is able to accomplish tasks such as process to process comms, how to supervise actors etc. It's the enabler for the distributed computing compared to Erlang which is the programming language. They're (obviously) complementary but OTP is the magic that enable one to deliver on the reactive manifesto. Functional programming needs augmenting with mechanisms that provide the distributed computing features, it's not enough on its own.
