Akka is a library implementing the actor model on the JVM. It enables the development of distributed, concurrent, fault-tolerant and scalable applications.

Akka persistence enables actors to persist their internal state so that it can be recovered where an actor is restarted.

We demonstrate the practical application of Akka persistence to build a configuration datastore for the control system of CERNs electrical network using CQRS and Event Sourcing.

Anargyros Kiourkos is a software engineer working in the Engineering Department of CERN developing software for data configuration and control applications. Enjoys software architecture. clean, testable code and experimenting with latest tools and technologies.
