From the post:
Ryan Tanner has posted a really good series of blogs on how and why they are using Akka, and especially how to design your application to make good use of clustering and routers. Akka provides solid tools but you still need to think where to point that shiny hammer, and Ryan has a solid story to tell:
- How We Built Our Backend on Akka and Scala
- Why We Like Actors
- Making Your Akka Life Easier
- Don’t Fall Into Our Anti-Pattern Traps
- The Importance of Pulling
PS: And no, we don’t mind anyone using our code, not even if it was contributed by Derek Wyatt (honorary team member) 🙂
Unlike the Peyton Place IT tragedies in Washington, this is a software tale that ends well.
Enjoy!
