Interested to see how this stands up against alternatives like Akka.

  The interesting innovation (at least on the JVM) seems to be the use of _virtual_ actors. At first glance this looks similar to Microsoft's Orleans project: http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/210931/Orleans-MSR-TR-2014-41.pdf http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/210931/Orleans-MSR-TR-201...

    I was about to suggest that they seem to have leaned more toward Orleans than Akka. Orleans on Github: https://github.com/dotnet/Orleans https://github.com/dotnet/Orleans

      Orbit Actors is a framework to write distributed systems using virtual actors. It was developed by BioWare, a division of Electronic Arts, and is heavily inspired by the Orleans project. http://orbit.bioware.com/orbit-actor-overview.html http://orbit.bioware.com/orbit-actor-overview.html
