Hello guys, I have a relative simple problem : i want to have millions of actors distributed in an akka cluster but i want to have the guarantee that an actor with a specific id exists only once in the entire system. So my question is the following : what is the best solution in terms of performance/overhead ?
>From my (little) experience, based on a cluster of nodes (which can increase/decrease dynamically) i have the following options : 1. use the cluster sharding feature 2. use the cluster singleton, which i think is overkill in my case (millions of actors in the system) 3. use some sort of logic based on storing the state and node assignation of an actor in a database (but this might get tricky when a node fails for unknown reasons, or the actor system doesn't shutdown properly). I am opened to different ideas/approaches.
