In this Lightbend Podcast, we sit down with Renato Cavalcanti, senior engineer on the Akka team to discuss the recent release of Akka Projections 1.0, a new addition to the Akka toolkit.

In this webinar with Hugh McKee, Developer Advocate for Akka Platform, we’ll look at “What on Earth”, a demo exploring how Akka Microservices serves as an ideal solution for high-scale digital twinning for IoT–exemplified by Tesla in this TechRepublic article.

You may not have realized it at the time, but it's quite possible you've used Akka without knowing it. 

While there are many Knative examples for Knative Serving and Knative Eventing, it is hard to find examples written in Scala. In this blog post, we’ll fill in this gap by providing some Knative examples in Scala.

In this demo and sample project, we look at the dynamics behind failure and recovery with Akka Cluster, especially looking at the difference between DIY recovery and automated recovery with Split Brain Resolver.

In this hands-on session with Hugh McKee, you’ll get to see first hand the dynamics behind failure and recovery with Akka Cluster, especially looking at the difference between DIY recovery and automated recovery with Split Brain Resolver.

We recently sat down with Johannes Rudolph, Senior Engineer on the Akka Platform team at Lightbend, to discuss the recent launch of Akka HTTP 10.2, which includes various improvements based on Akka 2.6, a reduction in boilerplate code for Java developers, and improved interop with Akka gRPC.

In this webinar by Nolan Grace, Senior Solution Architect at Lightbend, we look at these two Akka modules and discuss the features that will push your application architecture to the next tier of performance.

In this self-paced, virtual course for Java developers, you’ll learn how to use Akka to create highly concurrent applications that are capable of improved scalability within a single JVM.

In this self-paced, virtual course from Lightbend Academy, you’ll learn about Akka Cluster Sharding and its various features as you convert a stateless microservice into a stateful one.

In this post, we’ll uncover four unique technical benefits of building distributed stateful applications with Akka, a popular open-source runtime used by Global 5,000 companies like Starbucks, HPE, PayPal and more to handle their mission-critical systems.

Coupling Akka Platform with Red Hat OpenShift, organizations can build and deploy smart applications and infrastructure to deliver efficient cloud native applications on any cloud or multiple clouds—all at reduced cost.

In this talk by David Ogren, Principal Enterprise Architect at Lightbend, we draw from experiences helping our clients successfully create, migrate to, and manage cloud-native system architectures.

Akka expert Manuel Bernhardt describes a 3-month long experiment to get Akka Cluster to scale out to 10,000 nodes, breaking the previous limit of 2400 nodes running on Google Compute Engine.

This is Part 2, Project 1 of “How Akka Cluster Works”, a multi-project video series that introduces developers and architects working with Java (and Scala) to the inner workings of Akka Cluster. In Part 2: Cluster Node Lifecycles, we dive into interacting with nodes in the cluster in real-time.

With the continued growth of Akka Cluster to power cloud native applications around the world, Lightbend has recognized that the timing is right to contribute two commercial-only features to the open source core of Akka...

This is Part 1, Project 1 of “How Akka Cluster Works”, a multi-project video series that introduces developers and architects working with Java (and Scala) to the inner workings of Akka Cluster. In Part 1: Getting Started, we introduce Akka Cluster using a sample Akka Java project that includes a web dashboard.

In this fireside chat, we discuss how message delivery works between actors, nodes, and clusters, including a new feature in the latest release of Akka called Reliable Delivery.

In this series of blog posts, we introduce a proof of concept that implements a highly consistent, and performant distributed cache with a persistence backing using Akka, Cassandra, and Scala.
