In today's world, computer hardware is becoming cheaper and more powerful, as we have multiple cores on a single CPU chip. As cores keep on increasing, with the increasing power of hardware, we need a state of the art software framework which can use these cores efficiently.
Akka is such a framework, or you can say, a toolkit, which utilizes the hardware cores efficiently and lets you write performant applications.
As we are living in big data world, a lot of traffic comes to our servers, and we want our servers to respond in milliseconds instead of seconds. Akka is here to scale up the application as the load on it increases.
We want our application to run day and night continuously with high availability--Akka is here to build ...
