Thanks Konrad, I will wait till 2.4. However, thinking about this a bit more adding cluster roles only solves half the problem. The other issue is that I need to have the actor class on the "local" machine to get a ClusterShard. What I would like to do is to implement CQRS/ES like this:
Play servers (fronted by HAProxy) - Cluster Role: FrontEnd Akka cluster with Persistent actor - Cluster Role: Command Akka cluster with Persistent views - Cluster Role: Query Once cluster roles are in place, this will let me do this, however I would still need the source code of the the two cluster to be on the frontend because IU need the actor class on the front end. Really it is not need there it is only used by the two back end cluster, I hesitate to say this, but it might be better to give the class name as a string... Not ideal either, but it will decouple the back end from the front end.
