Building a Distributed Graph Database with Akka 2.6 by Yunan Zhao
Details
Hi Scalators,
I hope everyone is safe at home and doing their part to "flatten the curve" during these difficult times! To help break the monotony Scala Toronto is going to run several virtual events.
Our next event will be conducted online by an amazing local Scala engineer that many of you know already, Yunan Zhao. This will be an online-only event. I hope to see (or hear) you there! We'll use Google meet. Here's the scheduled meeting link:

(Watch for a change in the event URL. We may switch to a Microsoft Team solution)
Talk: Building a Distributed Graph Database with Akka 2.6
Description:
Akka is a popular toolkit for Scala developers to build concurrent and distributed applications. In this talk we will talk about how to use some of the more advanced Akka features/concepts to implement a simple distributed graph database. We will go through how and why each one of these Akka features/concepts is used. By the end of this talk, you should gain a better understanding of Akka and how to build interesting projects with it.
