ai.bythebay.io Nov 2025, Oakland, full-stack AI conference Scale By the Bay 2019 is held on November 13-15 in sunny Oakland, California, on the shores of Lake Merritt: https://scale.bythebay.io. Join us! ----- Krzysztof Otrebski, Ocado Technology Does anyone remember the game “Missile Command” on Atari? I bet you know it or played some kind of clone. I have also crated clone but with small difference, computer system is defending cities. During this session I would like to run missile defence system on a few Raspberry Pi's. Under the hood there will be Scala and Akka Cluster. You want to have defence system which is responsive and resilient, so do I. I will perform network and power failures to provide some idea how quickly it can recover, heal itself and prove that Akka application can be responsive and resilient.
