What's the reason we use Akka? I've always been under the impression it was an actor framework where if you aren't taking advantage of the actor stuff, you don't need it. If you're doing just HTTP for example, you could just use any old HTTP framework. If you want concurrency, you could just use tuned thread pools or reactive. That kind of thing. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1662571691092209?thread_ts=1662571691.092209&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ----
