Red Hat Marketplace provides a one-stop-shop to purchase enterprise applications and deploy across any cloud or on-premise
Lightbend, the leader in Reactive Architecture, announced that Akka Platform is now available through Red Hat Marketplace. Red Hat Marketplace is an open cloud marketplace for enterprise customers to discover, try, purchase, deploy, and manage certified container-based software across environments—public and private, cloud and on-premises. Through the marketplace, customers can take advantage of responsive support, streamlined b****** and contracting, simplified governance, and single-dashboard visibility across clouds.
The Akka Platform is a set of application frameworks and runtimes built on Akka—a powerful open source toolkit for building resilient, message-driven applications—that provides businesses with a decided advantage in application design for a cloud-native world. Akka applications feature a Reactive microservices architecture designed to take advantage of the underlying distributed computing infrastructure. Enterprises including Credit Karma, Hootsuite, iHeartRadio, LinkedIn, Norwegian Cruise Lines, Starbucks, UniCredit Group, Verizon, Walmart, Weight Watchers, William Hill, and many more have adopted Akka Platform to build low latency, fast data applications based on modern microservice architectures.

A containers-based approach helps ensure that applications can be run and managed the exact same way, regardless of the underlying cloud infrastructure. This gives companies the flexibility to run their workloads on premise or in any public or private cloud with improved portability and confidence that their applications and data are protected against vendor lock-in.
