Hi all, Just curious if anyone on the list has tried to blend Akka and Mesos at a level that is more granular than the JVM. For those that have heard about it but don't know much about it's core, Mesos is using kernel cgroups to provide ultra light weight virtualization with very low overhead for startup and shutdown as well as being able to provide resource constraints to requesting entities.
In one view, it might not make sense to go more granular than the JVM. After all, Mesos can't run JVM classes without one. On the other hand, I'm thinking it might be very useful to have a standardized Akka container that would allow actor distribution with consistent stream-oriented APIs that took care of all the clustering concerns with robust, well-established techniques. There's certainly a lot that can be done here, for instance with "warm nodes" that are pooled for usage spikes and could reduce first transaction latency even further with no change to semantics. WDYT?
