How does this compare with akka (http://akka.io)?

Much like our engineers, our software is extremely opinionated. Ordasity, Scalang, and Overlock are all small, extremely focused libraries to solve a single problem in a single way. This is quite similar to the Unix philosophy and we have found it to be similarly successful. Projects like Akka take a more maximalist, all-encompassing approach that doesn't work well for the way we build and operate services.

One love,

Akka & Ordasity have somewhat different goals and each takes a different approach. Apple/Oranges.
