h1. Akka Transactors h2. Distributed Transactional RESTful Persistent Actors h3. "http://akkasource.org":http://akkasource.org Akka implements a unique hybrid of: * The Actor model (Actors and Active Objects), which gives you: ** Concurrency (high-level and simple) ** Asynchronous, non-blocking and highly performant components. ** Supervision with "let-it-crash" semantics. Components are loosely coupled and restarted upon failure. * Software Transactional Memory (STM). * BASE and ACID persistence - Pluggable Eventually Consistent or ACID distributed scalable persistent storage. * Remoting - Distributed services with supervision and error management * REST (JAX-RS) and Comet bindings. * Monitoring and Management Akka can be used in two different ways: * As a library: used by a web app, to be put into ‘WEB-INF/lib’ * As a kernel: stand-alone kernel, embedding the servlet container See the "Use-case and Deployment Scenarios":http://wiki.github.com/jboner/akka/use-case-and-deployment-scenarios for details. h1. What's Akka all about? Why should I care? If you are new to Akka then I suggest you start with either the: * "High Level View":http://wiki.github.com/jboner/akka/modules-the-high-level-view; which is outlining the different modules in Akka. * "Use-case and Deployment Scenarios":http://wiki.github.com/jboner/akka/use-case-and-deployment-scenarios; outlining how and in which use-case and deployment scenarios can I use Akka? * "Examples":http://wiki.github.com/jboner/akka/examples; showing how to build a RESTful, transactional, persistent Active Object and Actor. After that you can dive into the "Reference Manual":http://wiki.github.com/jboner/akka/akka-reference-manual. h1. Documentation Akka has pretty thorough "reference documentation":https://github.com/jboner/akka/wikis. Covering examples, APIs and configuration. h1.
