Announce

After extensive testing, we’ve migrated from an Akka-based system to Cats-Actors in production. These systems, used in the iGaming industry, reliably handle thousands of messages per second. :rocket: :rocket: :rocket:

Cats-Actors is built entirely on Cats Effect, providing a pure functional approach to the actor model. It integrates seamlessly with the Cats Effect ecosystem and offers performance comparable to Akka and Pekko, with the added benefit of functional programming principles.

If you’re working on distributed systems and want to explore a functional approach to actors, Cats-Actors might be a good fit.

Library: GitHub - suprnation/cats-actors: Cats Actors framework for building apps which are reactive. Cats actors uses a conceptual actor model as a higher level abstraction for concurrency.

Sample repo: GitHub - cloudmark/cats-actor-sample: Cats Actor Samples

We’re excited to see how others might use this in their systems. Feedback and contributions are always welcome!
