Reactive Summit 2017

Akka Streams and Akka HTTP are highly efficient and highly resilient libraries. Being a library, however, still means building the infrastructure and scaffolding around Akka to create a fully resilient and manageable application. This session discusses the philosophies applied to Akka Streams to create an end-to-end resilient and manageable application. We address infrastructure components enabling and productionalizing the Akka application, including request/response pipelines, circuit-breaker, process lifecycle management, and integration points with your current production infrastructure. We also discuss principles we used to extract the most out of Akka creating a truly low-latency, high throughput application you can trust in your production environment. Last but not least, these components are conveniently available at your fingertips, all in open source, allowing you to go to production easier and faster than ever.
