In Akka in Action, Second Edition you will learn how to:Create basic programs with Akka TypedWork with clusters to build robust, fault-tolerant programsUse Akka with KubernetesBuild microservices with AkkaCreate and maintain distributed state with strong consistency guaranteesEmploy actor-based concurrency and parallelismTest Akka softwareAkka in Action, Second Edition teaches you to use Akka Typed to solve common problems of distributed systems. You'll learn how to bring together all of Akka's moving parts to design and implement highly scalable and maintainable software. Extensively revised by Akka contributor Francisco L pez-Sancho Abraham, this new edition demonstrates Akka's complex concepts through engaging hands-on examples. Discover the power of the Actor Model, how Akka works with Kubernetes, and how to utilize Akka modules to create microservices that are reliable and fault tolerant. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications. About the technology For large software systems, the action is in the -ilities. Scalability. Reliability. Maintainability. Capability. Akka, toolkit for building distributed message-driven applications, delivers on the ilities. And recent innovations, including Akka Typed, ensure that this amazing platform will remain the best way to build and deploy distributed Java and Scala applications for years to come. About the book Akka in Action, Second Edition is your guide to building message-centric distributed applications systems. This new edition covers all features of Akka, including Akka Typed. You'll learn to create microservices using Akka's powerful suite of tools, Akka Sharding, Persistence, Streams, Persistence Query, Projections, and gRPC. Practical examples taken directly from industry guide you through clustering, deploying to Kubernetes, and taking full advantage of Akka's Actors-based approach to concurrency.
