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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the book\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAkka in Action, Second Edition\u003c\/i\u003e 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat's inside\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWork with clusters to build robust, fault-tolerant programs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaintain distributed systems with strong consistency guarantees\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUtilize concurrency and parallelism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTest Akka software\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the reader\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor readers comfortable with Java and Scala.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrancisco Lopez Sancho-Abraham\u003c\/b\u003e is a senior consultant at Lightbend, and a principal engineer on the Akka Team. \u003cb\u003eRaymond Roestenburg\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eRob Bakker\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eRob Williams\u003c\/b\u003e are the authors of the first edition of \u003ci\u003eAkka in Action\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 Introducing Akka\u003cbr\u003e2 Up and running\u003cbr\u003e3 One actor is no actor\u003cbr\u003e4 Akka test kit\u003cbr\u003e5 Fault tolerance\u003cbr\u003e6 Discovery and routing\u003cbr\u003e7 Configuration\u003cbr\u003e8 Clustering\u003cbr\u003e9 Sharding and persistence\u003cbr\u003e10 Streams, persistence queries, and projections\u003cbr\u003e11 Akka ports\u003cbr\u003e12 Real-world example: An Akka betting house\u003cbr\u003e13 Clustering, part 2\u003cbr\u003e14 Connecting to systems with Alpakka\u003cbr\u003e15 Akka betting house, part 2\u003cbr\u003e16 Akka Streams, part 2","brand":"Manning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48172273664255,"sku":"9781617299216","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_a9ec57a2-dbd3-4c3d-adab-d9bf7b944ccf.jpg?v=1771253721","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781617299216","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
