- heavily inspired by spray.io.Pipeline
- fully functional style: a stage returns the resulting commands and
events, which makes it impossible to mess with the pipeline from the
inside
- object allocations are optimized away for emtpy and 1-elem results
- added type-safety, verifying that stages match up
- management commands “from the side” for configuration or async events
- full Java API and docs
