Greetings, I would like to propose Pekko [1] as a new Apache Incubator project.
Pekko is a toolkit that brings the actor model (popularised by Erlang) to the JVM, providing the basis for building both locally and distributed concurrency. On top of this Pekko provides a rich set of libraries built on top of Actors to solve modern problems, including: - Streams: Fully bi-directional backpressured streams following the Reactive manifesto - HTTP: A fully streamed HTTP client/server built on top of streams that also provides expected tools (such as connection pooling) necessary for highly available web services - connectors: A rich set of connectors for various databases, messaging, persistent services built on top of streams - grpc: A gRPC server/client - projection: Provides abstractions necessary for CQRS pattern such as envelope, necessary for systems such as Kafka. Controversially Pekko is a fork of the Akka project just prior to its licence changed from Apache 2 to Business Source License 1.1. I look forward to your feedback and discussions, Thank you, Claude Warren [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/PekkoProposal
