> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-32468
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Runtime / Coordination
> Reporter: Konstantin Knauf

> Priority: Critical

> Fix For: 1.18.0

>
> Akka 2.6.x will not receive security fixes from September 2023 onwards (see
> https://discuss.lightbend.com/t/2-6-x-maintenance-proposal/9949).
> A mid-term plan to replace Akka is described in FLINK-29281. In the meantime,
> we suggest to replace Akka by Apache Pekko (incubating), which is a fork of
> Akka 2.6.x under the Apache 2.0 license. This way - if needed - we at least
> have the ability to release security fixes ourselves in collaboration with
> the Pekko community.
