As Endre already highlighted, we have a different focus than the specialised-for-big-data frameworks.
Our focus is to get the back-pressure semantics and common API among library implementors right (the reactive streams API). There’s a lot of discussions around these still happening at https://github.com/reactive-streams/reactive-streams if you’re interested. The spec is still evolving actively. APIs will continue to be improved of course and we are well aware of Spark/Storm/Scalding (with the last one I’ve spent a lot of time ;-)). If you think we’re missing any fundamental combinators please check if they’re already in our todo’s or open a ticket: https://github.com/akka/akka/issues?labels=t%3Astream&page=1&state=open -- Konrad 'ktoso' Malawski hAkker @ typesafe http://akka.io -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
