Akka cluster is essentially cluster membership, including failure detection. Several tools, such as cluster aware routers, are provided on top of this, but you have full control of where and how to run the actors when you need that. > my question is: > > Is the internal Akka net pipeline more or less equivalent to our one or, > in case of not, could I plug in something similar our current pipeline into > Akka? > > We've found that the three criteria aforementioned enabled us to adjust > our current technology to a wide range of customer requirements. > To give me a more clear picture, can you give some example of what this solves. > > I couldn't find the right way to go on after reading the docs Dispatchers, > Routers, and mailboxes, (and also I'm a novice Akka user). > > I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do and why, but one solution might be to pass the messages via an actor that is responsible for the buffering and flushing.
