Reviews'A belter of a book--buckle up and get ready for the ride of your life. Take an expert guided tour through modern distributed systems built the Akka way!' Grahame Oakland 'This is the definitive book on Actors and Actor System design. Level up your design skills by understanding what Actors can do!' Todd Cook 'A great way to get started with Actors and Akka and doesn't require prior experience. It goes even beyond that and covers advanced topics like clustering and sharding.' Nenko Ivanov 'The book is fantastic if you're looking to cover the theoretical and practical aspects of Akka.' Gilberto Taccari 'An incredible way to have an overview of Akka and to understand all the power it has.' Andres Sacco

SynopsisUse Akka to solve the big problems of distributed systems--from multithreading and concurrency, to handling scalability and failure. In Akka in Action, Second Edition you will learn how to: Create basic programs with Akka Work with clusters to build robust, fault tolerant programs Create and maintain distributed state with strong consistency guarantees Build microservices with Akka Utilize concurrency and parallelism Test Akka software Akka in Action, Second Edition teaches you to use the latest version of Akka to solve common problems of distributed systems. Akka contributor Francisco López-Sancho demonstrates Akka's 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 technology Akka is a toolkit of libraries that make it easy to implement distributed applications in Scala and Java. Akka's Actor model avoids many of the complexities of multithreading, while making systems elastic and resilient, and provides strong consistency. about the book Akka in Action, Second Edition is a practical guide to building message-oriented systems with Akka. Extensively revised by Akka contributor and consultant Francisco López-Sancho, this upgraded second edition comes with new coverage of Akka typed, microservices architecture, and more. You'll learn how to build with Akka actors and why they're the perfect solution for distributed systems. Driven by practical examples, this book is the perfect guide to creating elastic, resilient, and reactive software with Akka., Akka solves the big problems of distributed systems, from multithreading and concurrency to scalability and failure. Learn how to use it effectively. In Akka in Action, Second Edition you will learn how to: Create basic programs with Akka Typed Work with clusters to build robust, fault-tolerant programs Use Akka with Kubernetes Build microservices with Akka Create and maintain distributed state with strong consistency guarantees Employ actor-based concurrency and parallelism Test Akka software Akka 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 López-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. What's inside Work with clusters to build robust, fault-tolerant programs Maintain distributed systems with strong consistency guarantees Utilize concurrency and parallelism Test Akka software About the reader For readers comfortable with Java and Scala. About the author Francisco Lopez Sancho-Abraham is a senior consultant at Lightbend, and a principal engineer on the Akka Team.
