You asked for it, you got it: type safe Actors

on YouTube ↗17m

" summary

Describes how Akka Typed uses the Scala type system to guarantee actors only receive messages they can handle, shows the concrete APIs and the actual abstraction that survived three design iterations, and walks through code for typed behaviors, typed mailbox wiring and service discovery integration. Demonstrates building type-safe asynchronous message-driven components, measures message handling and failure modes, and shows how the APIs are used to scale across many cores and machines.
