Prerequisites:
- Proficiency in Scala or Java (Akka is primarily used with these languages).
- Understanding of concurrency and asynchronous programming (e.g., threads, futures, and event-driven models).
- Basic knowledge of distributed systems (optional, but beneficial for working with Akka in a distributed environment).
- Familiarity with modern development practices (e.g., version control, CI/CD).
- Basic understanding of networking protocols (e.g., TCP/IP, HTTP).
What You Will Learn:
Our trainers will help you acquire the following skills in this training program.
- Akka Basics: Understanding the core principles of Akka Actors, Actor Model, and how they enable scalable, concurrent systems.
- Concurrency and Asynchronous Programming: How Akka handles concurrency with actors, futures, and event-driven architectures.
- Building Distributed Systems: How to use Akka to create distributed systems with concepts like Akka Cluster and distributed actors.
- Fault Tolerance and Reliability: Techniques for building resilient systems with Akka, including supervision strategies and failure detection.
- Reactive Programming: Implementing reactive systems using Akka’s streams and Akka HTTP for building scalable and responsive applications.
- Integration with Other Tools: How Akka integrates with messaging systems, databases, and other distributed systems for building complex applications.
- Testing Akka Systems: Best practices for testing Akka applications and ensuring reliability.
- Scaling Akka Applications: Understanding how to scale applications with Akka Clustering, sharding, and distributed data.
