Akka in Action

Use Akka to solve the big problems of distributed systemsfrom multithreading and concurrency, to handling scalability and failure.In Akka in Action, Second Edition you will learn how to:Create basic programs with AkkaWork with clusters to build robust, fault tolerant programsCreate and maintain distributed state with strong consistency guaranteesBuild microservices with AkkaUtilize concurrency and parallelismTest Akka softwareAkka in Action, Second Edition teaches you to use the latest version of Akka to solve common problems of distributed systems. Akka contributor Francisco Lï¿¿pez-Sancho demonstrates Akkas complex concepts through real-world use cases, including clustering, sharding, persistence, and deploying to Kubernetes. Discover the power of the Actor model, and how to leverage most of the Akka modules to create microservices that are reliable and fault tolerant.about the technologyAkka is a toolkit of libraries that make it easy to implement distributed applications in Scala and Java. Akkas Actor model avoids many of the complexities of multithreading, while making systems elastic and resilient, and provides strong consistency.
