Fortunately, the solution is not a new paradigm of development, but rather an old one. With this hands-on guide, Java and Scala developers will learn how to embrace concurrent and distributed applications with the open source Akka toolkit. You'll learn how to put the actor model and its associated patterns to immediate and practical use. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Throughout the book, you'll deal with an analogous workforce problem: how to schedule a group of people across a variety of projects while optimizing their time and skillsets. This example will help you understand how Akka uses actors, streams, and other tools to stitch your application together. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eModel software that reflects the real world with domain-driven design \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn principles and practices for implementing individual actors \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlock the real potential of Akka with patterns for combining multiple actors \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand the consistency tradeoffs in a distributed system \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse several Akka methods for isolating and dealing with failures \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore ways to build systems that support availability and scalability \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTune your Akka application for performance with JVM tools and dispatchers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Nash,Wade Waldron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e O'Reilly Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/24\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.19h x 7.00w x 0.42d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781491934883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael Nash is director of capabilities at Lightbend.
