A banking system has some special constraints that are very hard to achieve together: High scalability, availability, auditing, and specially, dealing with parallelism respecting the invariances of a typical bank account. In this proposal, Kafka Platform is the backbone of this solution, but It’s not alone. To deal fully with the constraints, a combination with others technologies is necessary and Akka is the main chosen partner. The talk will contextualize the problem, how the Kafka Platform deal with it and the gaps filled by Akka.
