As the number of systems within an IT infrastructure increases, the number of integrations needed by enterprises also multiplies. Recognizing that the old times of overnight file exchanges are no longer meeting real-time demands, a well-organized enterprise integration strategy is a critical success factor when your systems need to be connected all day.
In this webinar with Enno Runne, Tech Lead for Alpakka at Lightbend, Inc., we’ll look at why integrations should be viewed as streams of data, and how Alpakka—a Reactive Enterprise Integration library for Java and Scala based on Reactive Streams and Akka—fits perfectly for today’s demands on system integrations. Specifically, we will review:
* How Alpakka brings streaming data flows directly to the surface, utilizing the features of Akka to tame the complexity of streams.
* Supported connectors for Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, as well as others for event sourcing/persistence/DB technologies and traditional interfaces like FTP, HTTP, etc.
* A deeper look into the use cases for Alpakka’s most utilized interfaces to popular technologies like Apache Kafka, MQTT, and MongoDB.

Revitalizing Enterprise Integration with Reactive StreamsLightbend
With Viktor Klang, Deputy CTO Lightbend, Inc.
As software grows more and more interconnected, and with several generations of software having to interoperate, a new take on the integration of systems is needed—ad hoc, unversioned, and unreplicated scripts just won’t suffice, and the traditional Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) concept has experienced stability, reliability, performance, and scalability problems.
In this webinar, Viktor explores a new take on Enterprise Integration Patterns:
First, he will explore the Reactive Streams standard, an orchestration layer where transformations are standalone, composable, reusable, and—most importantly—using asynchronous flow-control—back pressure—to maintain predictable, stable, behavior over time.
Furthermore, he will go through how one-off workloads relate to continuous, and batch, workloads, and how they can be addressed by that very same orchestration layer.
Finally, he will review how this type of design achieves resilience, scalability, and ultimately—responsiveness.
Akka Streams And Kafka Streams: Where Microservices Meet Fast DataLightbend
In a recent survey, 90% of over 2400 developers reported having at least some real-time functionality in their systems. Enterprises are realizing that the ability to extract value from streaming data in near real-time is the new competitive advantage.
Two technologies–Akka Streams and Kafka Streams–have emerged as popular tools to use with Apache Kafka for addressing the shared requirements of availability, scalability, and resilience for both streaming microservices and Fast Data. So which one should you use for specific use cases?
Akka, Spark or Kafka? Selecting The Right Streaming Engine For the JobLightbend
For many businesses, the batch-oriented architecture of Big Data–where data is captured in large, scalable stores, then processed later–is simply too slow: a new breed of “Fast Data” architectures has evolved to be stream-oriented, where data is processed as it arrives, providing businesses with a competitive advantage.
There are many stream processing tools, so which ones should you choose? It helps to consider several factors in the context of your applications:
* Low latency: How low (or high) is needed?
* High volume: How much volume must be handled?
* Integration with other tools: Which ones and how?
* Data processing: What kinds? In bulk? As individual events?
In this talk by Dean Wampler, PhD., VP of Fast Data Engineering at Lightbend, we’ll look at the criteria you need to consider when selecting technologies, plus specific examples of how four streaming tools–Akka Streams, Kafka Streams, Apache Flink and Apache Spark serve particular needs and use cases when working with continuous streams of data.
Streaming Microservices With Akka Streams And Kafka StreamsLightbend
One of the most frequent questions that we get asked at Lightbend is “what’s the difference between Akka Streams and Kafka Streams?” After all, there is only a 1 letter difference between these two technologies, so how different could they be?
Well, as we see in this presentation, they are actually quite different. Both tools are part of the streaming Fast Data stack, but were created with entirely different technological approaches in mind. For example, While Akka Streams emerged as a dataflow-centric abstraction for the Akka Actor model, designed for general-purpose microservices, very low-latency event processing, and supports a wider class of application problems and third-party integrations via Alpakka, Kafka Streams is purpose-built for reading data from Kafka topics, processing it, and writing the results to new topics in a Kafka-centric way.
In this webinar by Dr. Dean Wampler, VP of Fast Data Engineering at Lightbend, we will:
* Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of Kafka Streams and Akka Streams for particular design needs in data-centric microservices
* Contrast them with Spark Streaming and Flink, which provide richer analytics over potentially huge data sets
* Help you map these streaming engines to your specific use cases, so you confidently pick the right ones for your jobs
Dean Wampler, O’Reilly author and Big Data Strategist in the office of the CTO at Lightbend discusses practical tips for architecting stream-processing applications and explains how you can tame some of the complexity in moving from data at rest to data in motion.

Modern businesses have data at their core, and this data is changing continuously. How can we harness this torrent of information in real-time? The answer is stream processing, and the technology that has since become the core platform for streaming data is Apache Kafka. Among the thousands of companies that use Kafka to transform and reshape their industries are the likes of Netflix, Uber, PayPal, and AirBnB, but also established players such as Goldman Sachs, Cisco, and Oracle.
Unfortunately, today’s common architectures for real-time data processing at scale suffer from complexity: there are many technologies that need to be stitched and operated together, and each individual technology is often complex by itself. This has led to a strong discrepancy between how we, as engineers, would like to work vs. how we actually end up working in practice.
In this session we talk about how Apache Kafka helps you to radically simplify your data processing architectures. We cover how you can now build normal applications to serve your real-time processing needs — rather than building clusters or similar special-purpose infrastructure — and still benefit from properties such as high scalability, distributed computing, and fault-tolerance, which are typically associated exclusively with cluster technologies. Notably, we introduce Kafka’s Streams API, its abstractions for streams and tables, and its recently introduced Interactive Queries functionality. As we will see, Kafka makes such architectures equally viable for small, medium, and large scale use cases.

Putting Kafka In Jail – Best Practices To Run Kafka On Kubernetes & DC/OSLightbend
Apache Kafka–part of Lightbend Fast Data Platform–is a distributed streaming platform that is best suited to run close to the metal on dedicated machines in statically defined clusters. For most enterprises, however, these fixed clusters are quickly becoming extinct in favor of mixed-use clusters that take advantage of all infrastructure resources available.
In this webinar by Sean Glover, Fast Data Engineer at Lightbend, we will review leading Kafka implementations on DC/OS and Kubernetes to see how they reliably run Kafka in container orchestrated clusters and reduce the overhead for a number of common operational tasks with standard cluster resource manager features. You will learn specifically about concerns like:
* The need for greater operational knowhow to do common tasks with Kafka in static clusters, such as applying broker configuration updates, upgrading to a new version, and adding or decommissioning brokers.
* The best way to provide resources to stateful technologies while in a mixed-use cluster, noting the importance of disk space as one of Kafka’s most important resource requirements.
* How to address the particular needs of stateful services in a model that natively favors stateless, transient services.
Akka and Kubernetes: Reactive From Code To CloudLightbend

URP? Excuse You! The Three Metrics You Have to Know confluent
(Todd Palino, LinkedIn) Kafka Summit SF 2018
What do you really know about how to monitor a Kafka cluster for problems? Is your most reliable monitoring your users telling you there’s something broken? Are you capturing more metrics than the actual data being produced? Sure, we all know how to monitor disk and network, but when it comes to the state of the brokers, many of us are still unsure of which metrics we should be watching, and what their patterns mean for the state of the cluster. Kafka has hundreds of measurements, from the high-level numbers that are often meaningless to the per-partition metrics that stack up by the thousands as our data grows.
We will thoroughly explore three key monitoring concepts in the broker, that will leave you an expert in identifying problems with the least amount of pain:
-Under-replicated Partitions: The mother of all metrics
-Request Latencies: Why your users complain
-Thread pool utilization: How could 80% be a problem?
We will also discuss the necessity of availability monitoring and how to use it to get a true picture of what your users see, before they come beating down your door!
Akka at Enterprise Scale: Performance Tuning Distributed ApplicationsLightbend
Organizations like Starbucks, HPE, and PayPal (see our customers) have selected the Akka toolkit for their enterprise scale distributed applications; and when it comes to squeezing out the best possible performance, the secret is using two particular modules in tandem: Akka Cluster and Akka Streams.
In this webinar by Nolan Grace, Senior Solution Architect at Lightbend, we look at these two Akka modules and discuss the features that will push your application architecture to the next tier of performance.
For the full blog post, including the video, visit: https://www.lightbend.com/blog/akka-at-enterprise-scale-performance-tuning-distributed-applications
Kafka makes so many things easier to do, from managing metrics to processing streams of data. Yet it seems that so many things we have done to this point in configuring and managing it have been object studies in how to make our lives, as the plumbers who keep the data flowing, more difficult than they have to be. What are some of our favorites?
* Kafka without access controls
* Multitenant clusters with no capacity controls
* Worrying about message schemas
* MirrorMaker inefficiencies
* Hope and pray log compaction
* Configurations as shared secrets
* One-way upgrades
We’ve made a lot of progress over the last few years improving the situation, in part by focusing some of this incredibly talented community towards operational concerns. We’ll talk about the big mistakes you can avoid when setting up multi-tenant Kafka, and some that you still can’t. And we will talk about how to continue down the path of marrying the hot, new features with operational stability so we can all continue to come back here every year to talk about it.
Reactive Streams 1.0.0 is now live, and so are our implementations in Akka Streams 1.0 and Slick 3.0.
Reactive Streams is an engineering collaboration between heavy hitters in the area of streaming data on the JVM. With the Reactive Streams Special Interest Group, we set out to standardize a common ground for achieving statically-typed, high-performance, low latency, asynchronous streams of data with built-in non-blocking back pressure—with the goal of creating a vibrant ecosystem of interoperating implementations, and with a vision of one day making it into a future version of Java.
Akka (recent winner of “Most Innovative Open Source Tech in 2015”) is a toolkit for building message-driven applications. With Akka Streams 1.0, Akka has incorporated a graphical DSL for composing data streams, an execution model that decouples the stream’s staged computation—it’s “blueprint”—from its execution (allowing for actor-based, single-threaded and fully distributed and clustered execution), type safe stream composition, an implementation of the Reactive Streaming specification that enables back-pressure, and more than 20 predefined stream “processing stages” that provide common streaming transformations that developers can tap into (for splitting streams, transforming streams, merging streams, and more).
Slick is a relational database query and access library for Scala that enables loose-coupling, minimal configuration requirements and abstraction of the complexities of connecting with relational databases. With Slick 3.0, Slick now supports the Reactive Streams API for providing asynchronous stream processing with non-blocking back-pressure. Slick 3.0 also allows elegant mapping across multiple data types, static verification and type inference for embedded SQL statements, compile-time error discovery, and JDBC support for interoperability with all existing drivers.
A Practical Guide to Selecting a Stream Processing Technology confluent
Presented by Michael Noll, Product Manager, Confluent.
Why are there so many stream processing frameworks that each define their own terminology? Are the components of each comparable? Why do you need to know about spouts or DStreams just to process a simple sequence of records? Depending on your application’s requirements, you may not need a full framework at all.
Processing and understanding your data to create business value is the ultimate goal of a stream data platform. In this talk we will survey the stream processing landscape, the dimensions along which to evaluate stream processing technologies, and how they integrate with Apache Kafka. Particularly, we will learn how Kafka Streams, the built-in stream processing engine of Apache Kafka, compares to other stream processing systems that require a separate processing infrastructure.
You have built an event-driven system leveraging Apache Kafka. Now you face the challenge of integrating traditional synchronous request-response capabilities, such as user interaction, through an HTTP web service.
There are various techniques, each with advantages and disadvantages. This talk discusses multiple options on how to do a request-response over Kafka — showcasing producers and consumers using single and multiple topics, and more advanced considerations using the interactive queries of ksqlDB and Kafka Streams.
Advanced considerations discussed:
What a consumer rebalance means to your active request-responses.
Discuss options for blocking for the async response in the web-service.
How can the CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) be leveraged with the interactive state stores of Kafka Streams and ksqlDB?
Interactive queries of the ksqlDB and Kafka Streams state stores are not available during a rebalance. What is the active Kafka development happening that will make interactive queries a more feasible option?
Would a custom state store help with rebalancing limitations?
Can custom partitioning be used for proper routing, and what impacts could that have to the other services in your ecosystem?
We will explore the above considerations with an interactive quiz application built using Apache Kafka, Kafka Streams, and ksqlDB. With a proper implementation in place, your request-response application can scale and be performant along with handling all of the requests.
Integrating Apache Kafka and Elastic Using the Connect Frameworkconfluent
As a streaming platform, Apache Kafka provides low-latency, high-throughput, fault-tolerant publish and subscribe pipelines and excels at processing streams of real-time events. Kafka provides reliable, millisecond delivery for connecting downstream systems with real-time data.
In this talk, we will show how easy it is to leverage Kafka and the Elasticsearch connector to keep your indices populated with the latest data from the rest of your enterprise, as it changes.
Exploring Reactive Integrations With Akka Streams, Alpakka And Apache KafkaLightbend
Since its stable release in 2016, Akka Streams is quickly becoming the de facto standard integration layer between various Streaming systems and products. Enterprises like PayPal, Intel, Samsung and Norwegian Cruise Lines see this is a game changer in terms of designing Reactive streaming applications by connecting pipelines of back-pressured asynchronous processing stages.
This comes from the Reactive Streams initiative in part, which has been long led by Lightbend and others, allowing multiple streaming libraries to inter-operate between each other in a performant and resilient fashion, providing back-pressure all the way. But perhaps even more so thanks to the various integration drivers that have sprung up in the community and the Akka team—including drivers for Apache Kafka, Apache Cassandra, Streaming HTTP, Websockets and much more.
In this webinar for JVM Architects, Konrad Malawski explores the what and why of Reactive integrations, with examples featuring technologies like Akka Streams, Apache Kafka, and Alpakka, a new community project for building Streaming connectors that seeks to “back-pressurize” traditional Apache Camel endpoints.
* An overview of Reactive Streams and what it will look like in JDK 9, and the Akka Streams API implementation for Java and Scala.
* Introduction to Alpakka, a modern, Reactive version of Apache Camel, and its growing community of Streams connectors (e.g. Akka Streams Kafka, MQTT, AMQP, Streaming HTTP/TCP/FileIO and more).
* How Akka Streams and Akka HTTP work with Websockets, HTTP and TCP, with examples in both in Java and Scala.

We’ve made a lot of progress over the last few years improving the situation, in part by focusing some of this incredibly talented community towards operational concerns. We’ll talk about the big mistakes you can avoid when setting up multi-tenant Kafka, and some that you still can’t. And we will talk about how to continue down the path of marrying the hot, new features with operational stability so we can all continue to come back here every year to talk about it.
Reactive Streams 1.0.0 is now live, and so are our implementations in Akka Streams 1.0 and Slick 3.0.
Reactive Streams is an engineering collaboration between heavy hitters in the area of streaming data on the JVM. With the Reactive Streams Special Interest Group, we set out to standardize a common ground for achieving statically-typed, high-performance, low latency, asynchronous streams of data with built-in non-blocking back pressure—with the goal of creating a vibrant ecosystem of interoperating implementations, and with a vision of one day making it into a future version of Java.
Akka (recent winner of “Most Innovative Open Source Tech in 2015”) is a toolkit for building message-driven applications. With Akka Streams 1.0, Akka has incorporated a graphical DSL for composing data streams, an execution model that decouples the stream’s staged computation—it’s “blueprint”—from its execution (allowing for actor-based, single-threaded and fully distributed and clustered execution), type safe stream composition, an implementation of the Reactive Streaming specification that enables back-pressure, and more than 20 predefined stream “processing stages” that provide common streaming transformations that developers can tap into (for splitting streams, transforming streams, merging streams, and more).
Slick is a relational database query and access library for Scala that enables loose-coupling, minimal configuration requirements and abstraction of the complexities of connecting with relational databases. With Slick 3.0, Slick now supports the Reactive Streams API for providing asynchronous stream processing with non-blocking back-pressure. Slick 3.0 also allows elegant mapping across multiple data types, static verification and type inference for embedded SQL statements, compile-time error discovery, and JDBC support for interoperability with all existing drivers.
A Practical Guide to Selecting a Stream Processing Technology confluent
Presented by Michael Noll, Product Manager, Confluent.
Why are there so many stream processing frameworks that each define their own terminology? Are the components of each comparable? Why do you need to know about spouts or DStreams just to process a simple sequence of records? Depending on your application’s requirements, you may not need a full framework at all.
Processing and understanding your data to create business value is the ultimate goal of a stream data platform. In this talk we will survey the stream processing landscape, the dimensions along which to evaluate stream processing technologies, and how they integrate with Apache Kafka. Particularly, we will learn how Kafka Streams, the built-in stream processing engine of Apache Kafka, compares to other stream processing systems that require a separate processing infrastructure.
You have built an event-driven system leveraging Apache Kafka. Now you face the challenge of integrating traditional synchronous request-response capabilities, such as user interaction, through an HTTP web service.
There are various techniques, each with advantages and disadvantages. This talk discusses multiple options on how to do a request-response over Kafka — showcasing producers and consumers using single and multiple topics, and more advanced considerations using the interactive queries of ksqlDB and Kafka Streams.
Advanced considerations discussed:
What a consumer rebalance means to your active request-responses.
Discuss options for blocking for the async response in the web-service.
How can the CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) be leveraged with the interactive state stores of Kafka Streams and ksqlDB?
Interactive queries of the ksqlDB and Kafka Streams state stores are not available during a rebalance. What is the active Kafka development happening that will make interactive queries a more feasible option?
Would a custom state store help with rebalancing limitations?
Can custom partitioning be used for proper routing, and what impacts could that have to the other services in your ecosystem?
We will explore the above considerations with an interactive quiz application built using Apache Kafka, Kafka Streams, and ksqlDB. With a proper implementation in place, your request-response application can scale and be performant along with handling all of the requests.
Integrating Apache Kafka and Elastic Using the Connect Frameworkconfluent
As a streaming platform, Apache Kafka provides low-latency, high-throughput, fault-tolerant publish and subscribe pipelines and excels at processing streams of real-time events. Kafka provides reliable, millisecond delivery for connecting downstream systems with real-time data.
In this talk, we will show how easy it is to leverage Kafka and the Elasticsearch connector to keep your indices populated with the latest data from the rest of your enterprise, as it changes.
Exploring Reactive Integrations With Akka Streams, Alpakka And Apache KafkaLightbend
Since its stable release in 2016, Akka Streams is quickly becoming the de facto standard integration layer between various Streaming systems and products. Enterprises like PayPal, Intel, Samsung and Norwegian Cruise Lines see this is a game changer in terms of designing Reactive streaming applications by connecting pipelines of back-pressured asynchronous processing stages.
This comes from the Reactive Streams initiative in part, which has been long led by Lightbend and others, allowing multiple streaming libraries to inter-operate between each other in a performant and resilient fashion, providing back-pressure all the way. But perhaps even more so thanks to the various integration drivers that have sprung up in the community and the Akka team—including drivers for Apache Kafka, Apache Cassandra, Streaming HTTP, Websockets and much more.
In this webinar for JVM Architects, Konrad Malawski explores the what and why of Reactive integrations, with examples featuring technologies like Akka Streams, Apache Kafka, and Alpakka, a new community project for building Streaming connectors that seeks to “back-pressurize” traditional Apache Camel endpoints.
* An overview of Reactive Streams and what it will look like in JDK 9, and the Akka Streams API implementation for Java and Scala.
* Introduction to Alpakka, a modern, Reactive version of Apache Camel, and its growing community of Streams connectors (e.g. Akka Streams Kafka, MQTT, AMQP, Streaming HTTP/TCP/FileIO and more).
* How Akka Streams and Akka HTTP work with Websockets, HTTP and TCP, with examples in both in Java and Scala.

Bringing Streaming Data To The Masses: Lowering The “Cost Of Admission” For Y...confluent
(Bob Lehmann, Bayer) Kafka Summit SF 2018
You’ve built your streaming data platform. The early adopters are “all in” and have developed producers, consumers and stream processing apps for a number of use cases. A large percentage of the enterprise, however, has expressed interest but hasn’t made the leap. Why?
In 2014, Bayer Crop Science (formerly Monsanto) adopted a cloud first strategy and started a multi-year transition to the cloud. A Kafka-based cross-datacenter DataHub was created to facilitate this migration and to drive the shift to real-time stream processing. The DataHub has seen strong enterprise adoption and supports a myriad of use cases. Data is ingested from a wide variety of sources and the data can move effortlessly between an on premise datacenter, AWS and Google Cloud. The DataHub has evolved continuously over time to meet the current and anticipated needs of our internal customers. The “cost of admission” for the platform has been lowered dramatically over time via our DataHub Portal and technologies such as Kafka Connect, Kubernetes and Presto. Most operations are now self-service, onboarding of new data sources is relatively painless and stream processing via KSQL and other technologies is being incorporated into the core DataHub platform.
In this talk, Bob Lehmann will describe the origins and evolution of the Enterprise DataHub with an emphasis on steps that were taken to drive user adoption. Bob will also talk about integrations between the DataHub and other key data platforms at Bayer, lessons learned and the future direction for streaming data and stream processing at Bayer.

Streaming ETL with Apache Kafka and KSQLNick Dearden
Companies new and old are all recognizing the importance of a low-latency, scalable, fault-tolerant data backbone - in the form of the Apache Kafka streaming platform. With Kafka developers can integrate multiple systems and data sources to enable low-latency analytics, event-driven architectures, and the population of downstream systems. What's more, these data pipelines can be built using configuration alone.
In this talk, we'll see how easy it is to capture a stream of data changes in real-time from a database such as MySQL into Kafka using the Kafka Connect framework and then use KSQL to filter, aggregate and join it to other data, and finally stream the results from Kafka out into multiple targets such as Elasticsearch and MySQL. All of this can be accomplished without a single line of Java code!
Since April 2016, Spark-as-a-service has been available to researchers in Sweden from the Swedish ICT SICS Data Center at www.hops.site. Researchers work in an entirely UI-driven environment on a platform built with only open-source software.
Spark applications can be either deployed as jobs (batch or streaming) or written and run directly from Apache Zeppelin. Spark applications are run within a project on a YARN cluster with the novel property that Spark applications are metered and charged to projects. Projects are also securely isolated from each other and include support for project-specific Kafka topics. That is, Kafka topics are protected from access by users that are not members of the project. In this talk we will discuss the challenges in building multi-tenant Spark streaming applications on YARN that are metered and easy-to-debug. We show how we use the ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana) for logging and debugging running Spark streaming applications, how we use Graphana and Graphite for monitoring Spark streaming applications, and how users can debug and optimize terminated Spark Streaming jobs using Dr Elephant. We will also discuss the experiences of our users (over 120 users as of Sept 2016): how they manage their Kafka topics and quotas, patterns for how users share topics between projects, and our novel solutions for helping researchers debug and optimize Spark applications.
To conclude, we will also give an overview on our course ID2223 on Large Scale Learning and Deep Learning, in which 60 students designed and ran SparkML applications on the platform.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

We'll begin by briefly discussing the popularity and applications of LLMs in various fields. Following this, we will introduce the vLLM tool, and explain how it integrates with Globus Compute to efficiently manage LLM operations on Polaris. Attendees will learn the practical aspects of setting up and remotely triggering LLMs from local machines, focusing on ease of use and efficiency. This talk is ideal for researchers and practitioners looking to leverage the power of LLMs in their work, offering a clear guide to harnessing supercomputing resources for quick and effective LLM inference.

Buffering data
• May cure the immediate issue
• All buffering is limited

Compliant libraries allow full interoperability
Reactive Streams
A standard for asynchronous
stream processing with non-
blocking back-pressure.
17. Akka?
How does streaming relate to
Akka Streams run on top of Akka Actors
Akka takes care of the intricacies of signalling demand
18. • Domain Specific Language to describe streams
• Mechanics to map these stream to be executed on top of actors
• Full support to connect to any Reactive Streams compliant library
Akka Streams
19. Extends Reactive Streams to be used
• for local file access
• over TCP as TCP supports flow control
• for HTTP with Akka HTTP

25. Alpakka is a Reactive Enterprise Integration
library for Java and Scala, based on Reactive
Streams and Akka.
Alpakka
The short version: “Endpoints for Akka Streams”
26. Alpakka
• Typed message interchange,
compiler tracks compatibility
• Back-pressure as specified by
Reactive Streams
• No OSGi support
• Relies on Akka Streams; evolving
rapidly, but many integration
requirements are not covered, yet
• Moving fast, docs split between
Akka and Alpakka sites
My view on Apache Camel vs Alpakka
Apache Camel
• Data is wrapped in Exchange instance,
type can only be inspected
• No back-pressure awareness, can
connect to Reactive Streams compliant
systems
• OSGi support
• Full-featured framework to express
integrations
• Comprehensive docs and books

… not as fancy logos, but very well suited for the streaming approach.
30. Preparations for Alpakka 1.0 include
