Play framework has all the functionality for both serving and using RESTful resources without Akka. Using Akka together with Play is certainly possible and handling banking transactions with Actors might indeed be a good idea. Then again, there could be easier ways to accomplish what you need to do. It all depends on your specific use case. Akka provides tools for building responsive and resilient applications, but is very honest about the problems that a distributed application faces in the real world, like message loss and partial failure. This makes designing your application quite challenging, but if you get it right, it will pay off in the long run thanks to great performance and stability.
If you wish to learn more about Akka, here are two books I can recommend: https://www.amazon.com/Akka-Concurrency-Derek-Wyatt/dp/0981531660 https://www.amazon.com/Reactive-Design-Patterns-Roland-Kuhn/dp/1617291803 Cheers, Rafał PS. Could you please refrain from typing in ALL CAPS? This is commonly understood as shouting and many people consider it very impolite. W dniu środa, 8 lutego 2017 12:05:14 UTC+1 użytkownik Eng.
