" summary

Data lies, gets corrupted, and cannot drive systems; design trust instead by separating facts vs opinions, owning state with persistent entities and using event-sourced facts so corrupted state can be rebuilt. Lightbend’s Lagom (Play, Akka, embedded Kafka/Cassandra) provides cluster-safe persistent actors, idempotent command handling and automatic replay of events, enabling isolated, autonomous stewards of state and views and practical sagas for cross-service coordination.
