0 likes819 views
The document introduces the Typesafe Reactive Platform, highlighting its open source and commercial offerings that provide business benefits such as improved response times and reduced development time. It emphasizes the need for resilient and elastic systems through a reactive approach that is responsive, elastic, resilient, and message-driven. Additionally, it mentions tools and technologies like Scala, Akka, Play, and Spark, aimed at developing scalable, high-performance applications while embracing a DevOps culture.
Introduction to the Typesafe Reactive Platform
- 1. Introduction to the Typesafe Reactive Platform Michael Nash, VP Capabilities
- 2. What? • Typesafe Reactive Platform • Open Source and Commercial Offerings • Business Benefits • Value
- 3. What's Changed? • (Much) More data • More features • More insight • Smaller response times • Less development time • 100% Uptime ... and Moore's law is capping out
- 4. So we go Multicore and Distributed
- 5. Scaling Up (Vertical) • A 10% bigger machine costs more than +10% • There's an upper limit • It's easy: Software doesn't change • But you get... • Single point of failure • Single point of contention • A hard upper limit
- 6. Scaling Out instead of Up (Horizontal) • More machines - a cluster • As soon as you have two machines you need • Parallelism • Non-Determinism • Distributed State • Now you have a design issue
- 7. You need a Reactive Platform Theoretically, you can build such a system with any platform... eventually A platform that supports concurrency and distribution makes it cost-effective You get business value faster, with fewer errors and lower maintenance
- 8. Productivity and Effectiveness Developing software at the speed and efficiency of yesterday isn't enough anymore We need more resilient and elastic systems, and we need them faster
- 9. The Best Teams The best developers want to work with the best technologies Attract and retain the best teams Great developers want to work with other great developers
- 10. Better Tools We need better tools for - Time to Market - Scalability (without re-writes) - Less downtime - Fewer errors - Greater resilience
- 11. What's Reactive? Reactive is an approach to building software that is... • Responsive • Elastic • Resilient • Message-Driven
- 12. What's the Typesafe Reactive Platform? Open Source and Commercial Offerings
- 14. Scala • Object-Functional Language • Compile to JVM or JavaScript • 7+ times higher velocity • Attracts the best talent
- 15. Akka The Actor Model for the JVM Toolkit for building concurrent and scalable apps • Elastic • High performance • Distributed by design • Resilient • Great base for Microservices
- 16. Play • Developer-friendly • Scalable • Uses Akka under the hood • RESTful APIs are easy • Native JSON support • Websocket, Comet, Streaming
- 17. Spark • Big data/Fast data analytics • Machine learning • Massive scale • In-memory distributed data sets We'll have a whole webinar dedicated to exploring Spark on October 27th
- 18. Tooling • Activator • Templates • Up and running quickly • SBT • Monitoring • Microservices
- 19. A DevOps Approach • Older approaches try to hide • The network • Failure • They try to enforce • A global "now" • Transaction isolation • Homogenous deployment
- 20. A DevOps Approach Reactive systems embrace DevOps - The network is native - Failure is embraced - Time is a first-class citizen Developers and Ops need to collaborate on the same team TRP provides tools to make this easy
- 21. TRP: Commercial World-class Support Certified builds - Verified compatibility - Security audited - Open-source indemnification - Commercial activator templates Production Monitoring Technical Enhancements for Enterprise Projects - Slick bindings for Oracle and SQL Server - Split-brain resolver - Play SOAP bindings - Play User Quotas ConductR
- 22. ConductR • Reactive Application Manager • Deploy and manage distributed applications • Service Discovery and location independence
- 23. ConductR • Provides a platform for all elements of the stack • Sits above the infrastructure layer (e.g. Mesos) • Ensures continuity of service • Tunable load-balancing
- 24. Meet the Neighbours • Java • Full interoperability • Huge ecosystem • The JVM • JavaScript • Scala.js • Support in Play • Mesos
- 25. Infinity Stack • Akka • Spark • Cassandra • Kafka On top of DCOS/Mesos Maximum utilization of data center
- 26. Where does BoldRadius fit in?
