We believe that writing correct concurrent, fault-tolerant and scalable applications is too hard. Most of the time it's because we are using the wrong tools and the wrong level of abstraction.
|
|
|
|
Akka is here to change that.
|
|
|
|
Using the Actor Model we raise the abstraction level and provide a better platform to build correct concurrent and scalable applications.
|
|
|
|
For fault-tolerance we adopt the "Let it crash" model which the telecom industry has used with great success to build applications that self-heal and systems that never stop.
|
|
|
|
Actors also provide the abstraction for transparent distribution and the basis for truly scalable and fault-tolerant applications.
