Apache Openwhisk Migrated to Pekko

Hi all,

Just wanted to let the community know that Apache Openwhisk has finally
moved over to Pekko. https://github.com/apache/openwhisk

I think this is one of the last major Apache projects getting off of Akka.
Thank you for all the work done on this project over the past several years
to get to the stable state it’s matured into. For a project that is so
intricately built on the framework using majority of the libraries, the
code changes were as good as can be in terms of human effort required from
me.

Thanks,
Brendan

Thanks for sharing, that's very exciting news.
I'm using Pekko stream at work to build Taobao LIve Streaming service too.

This is really nice to hear, i'm glad that the community effort for Pekko
has made it a painless experience to both migrate.

Thanks,
Matthew
