Hi Harit, Allow me to respond in-line to sentences where I have something to say:

We actually often saw clients not applying back-pressure in their systems leading to overload and stability problems, so Akka Streams are a direct answer addressing this need. We think that more and more developers will come to realise that back-pressure is a crucial tool to have at your disposal and "built in". > *Recommendation Needed* > > 1.

Progressing as one learns the tools and experimenting what works in your domain and what not is crucial for a nice end result I think. > 1.
