Reactive Microservices with Akka and Docker

on YouTube ↗46m

" summary

Demo builds a simple chat system with a user service and a chat service using Akka HTTP, Akka Persistence and Docker; events are journaled to Cassandra so actor state survives container crashes and recovers on restart, and Server-Sent Events push user events to the chat service (observed delivery in ~2–3s). Uses cluster singletons with a Constructor bootstrapper for dynamic Docker nodes and Docker images created via sbt-native-packager, and the demos work end-to-end.
