Record details and sources

Overview

Akka is a free and open-source toolkit and runtime simplifying the construction of concurrent and distributed applications on the JVM. Akka supports multiple programming models for concurrency, but it emphasizes actor-based concurrency, with its implementation of the actor model. It provides tools to create applications that can handle high volumes of traffic, scale out across multiple nodes, and self-heal from failures.
