In this webinar, Michael Nash of BoldRadius explores the Typesafe Reactive Platform. The Typesafe Reactive Platform is a suite of technologies and tools that support the creation of reactive applications, that is, applications that handle the kind of responsiveness requirements, data volume, and user load that was out of practical reach only a few years ago. From analysis of the human genome to wearable technology to communications at a massive scale, BoldRadius has the premier team of experts with decades of collective experience in designing and building these types of applications, and in helping teams adopt these tools.

1. Introduction
to the Typesafe Reactive Platform
Michael Nash, VP Capabilities

2. What?
• Typesafe Reactive Platform
• Open Source and Commercial Offerings
• Business Benefits
• Value

3. What's Changed?
• (Much) More data
• More features
• More insight
• Smaller response times
• Less development time
• 100% Uptime
... and Moore's law is capping out

4. So we go
Multicore and
Distributed

5. Scaling Up
(Vertical)
• A 10% bigger machine costs more
than +10%
• There's an upper limit
• It's easy: Software doesn't change
• But you get...
• Single point of failure
• Single point of contention
• A hard upper limit

6. Scaling Out instead
of Up (Horizontal)
• More machines - a cluster
• As soon as you have two machines
you need
• Parallelism
• Non-Determinism
• Distributed State
• Now you have a design issue

7. You need a Reactive
Platform
Theoretically, you can build such a
system with any platform... eventually
A platform that supports concurrency
and distribution makes it cost-effective
You get business value faster, with
fewer errors and lower maintenance

8. Productivity and
Effectiveness
Developing software at the speed and
efficiency of yesterday isn't enough
anymore
We need more resilient and elastic
systems, and we need them faster

9. The Best Teams
The best developers want to work with the best technologies
Attract and retain the best teams
Great developers want to work with other great developers

10. Better Tools
We need better tools for
- Time to Market
- Scalability (without re-writes)
- Less downtime
- Fewer errors
- Greater resilience

11. What's Reactive?
Reactive is an approach to building software that is...
• Responsive
• Elastic
• Resilient
• Message-Driven

12. What's the Typesafe Reactive
Platform?
Open Source and Commercial Offerings

13. TRP: Open Source
Scala
Akka
Play
Spark
Tooling

14. Scala
• Object-Functional Language
• Compile to JVM or JavaScript
• 7+ times higher velocity
• Attracts the best talent

15. Akka
The Actor Model for the JVM
Toolkit for building concurrent and
scalable apps
• Elastic
• High performance
• Distributed by design
• Resilient
• Great base for Microservices

16. Play
• Developer-friendly
• Scalable
• Uses Akka under the hood
• RESTful APIs are easy
• Native JSON support
• Websocket, Comet, Streaming

17. Spark
• Big data/Fast data analytics
• Machine learning
• Massive scale
• In-memory distributed data sets
We'll have a whole webinar dedicated
to exploring Spark on October 27th

18. Tooling
• Activator
• Templates
• Up and running quickly
• SBT
• Monitoring
• Microservices

19. A DevOps Approach
• Older approaches try to hide
• The network
• Failure
• They try to enforce
• A global "now"
• Transaction isolation
• Homogenous deployment

20. A DevOps Approach
Reactive systems embrace DevOps
- The network is native
- Failure is embraced
- Time is a first-class citizen
Developers and Ops need to collaborate
on the same team
TRP provides tools to make this easy

21. TRP: Commercial
World-class Support
Certified builds
- Verified compatibility
- Security audited
- Open-source indemnification
- Commercial activator templates
Production Monitoring
Technical Enhancements for Enterprise Projects
- Slick bindings for Oracle and SQL Server
- Split-brain resolver
- Play SOAP bindings
- Play User Quotas
