Interesting! What's the relationship between Akka.NET and Akka? Is Akka.NET fully compatible with JVM Akka, from a remoting and clustering perspective? Or is the idea of the project to basically recreate roughly the same library, but for the .NET platform?
- hipsterrific 10y agoAkka.net is a C# port from the Java version. Not sure about the rest though. :)
- Aaronontheweb 10y agoAkka.NET is not fully compatible with the JVM out of the box. Different wire formats and object representation types - if you use a custom serializer, however, such as one that uses user-defined Google Protobufs then you can solve that problem (since Protobufs can be compiled into both native JVM and CLR objects.)
- Maultasche 10y agoFrom what I recall, Akka.NET started of as a simple port of Akka to the .NET ecosystem, but evolved from there in a different direction than Akka. So there will be lots of similarities between the two, since they they started out almost the same, but also lot of differences due to difference paths of evolution. It wouldn't surprise me if they borrow ideas from each other, but the two are very much independent.
- hhandoko 10y agoInteresting, I always thought they try to be a faithful port. In what ways do they differ?
- plmaheu 10y agoThey adapted to their user base and the fact .NET has some fundamental differences with the JVM. From https://www.infoq.com/news/2016/07/akka-dotnet https://www.infoq.com/news/2016/07/akka-dotnet.
