Unify old routing in akka-actor with new routing in akka-cluster

  • One single common abstraction.
  • The old ones should be removed and turned into configuration like clustered routers.


The idea is to have a single API to obtain a loadBalancer/router, even if it's in-process or a clustered one.
akka.routing.Router and akka.routing.LoadBalancer should be removed and most of their functionality be replaced with this new API,
as a first PoC it could be configured in the Deployment-section with some option of the load-balanced instances being clustered or just local, and then just use actorOf for obtaining the reference.

Jonas:

The old akka.actor.routing functionality also contains the concept of Broadcast. Should this be part of the new router functionality (makes sense), or should it be dropped.

So the old routing is completely removed and replaced by the routers that originally came from the akka-cluster.

What not yet has been done is making the stuff configurable from a configuration file.

This task was originally seen as a 1 or 2 day task, but seen the amount of work that needed to be done, a 3 day task would have been a better estimation. In total it has costed me 3.5 days, including testing, lots of cleanup etc.

A few of the things are fixed. But a lot of it I would rather see as new ticket since they go beyond the scope of this task. E.g. composition instead of inheritance with the routing.
