Hi Shahrdad, just a point of etiquette, inferring that an architect is ignorant because they chose Java8, Akka and play is full of assumptions. Calling those technologies pathetic is very bad poor.
As I like to quote "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes rude manners, assumptions and a whole bunch of numptiness to claim 'bigger and more complex' means the author is a fool".
