Question

Right now I\'m looking at Play Framework and like it a lot. One of the parts heavy advertised amongst the features offered in Play is Akka.

In order to better understand

Answer 1

http://scalecube.io is a low latency microservices lib . a complete solution that enable you to develop robust concurrent & distributed system.

Like Akka: - its based on gossip and swim protocol. - its message driven based on protobuf (full duplex). - its for the JVM. - low latency and about ~6 times faster. - uses RxJava proven to be faster than akka streams.

Unlike Akka: - its less opinionated - not a framework. - not forcing Actor pattern as holistic pattern.
