Akka vs Scramjet: What are the differences?

Developers describe Akka as "Build powerful concurrent & distributed applications more easily". Akka is a toolkit and runtime for building highly concurrent, distributed, and resilient message-driven applications on the JVM. On the other hand, Scramjet is detailed as "Fast, simple, free and open source functional reactive programming framework". Scramjet is a fast, simple, free and open source functional reactive stream programming framework written on top of node.js streams with multi-threadding support. The code is written by chaining functions that transform data easily with ES7 async/await syntax. It is built upon the logic behind three well known javascript array operations: map, filter and reduce. Scramjet transforms are so standard and natural that we're sure you can start writing your code straight away.

Akka and Scramjet can be primarily classified as "Concurrency Frameworks" tools.

Akka is an open source tool with 10.8K GitHub stars and 3.24K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Akka's open source repository on GitHub.

      What tools integrate with Scramjet?
      What are some alternatives to Akka and Scramjet?
      Spring
      A key element of Spring is infrastructural support at the application level: Spring focuses on the "plumbing" of enterprise applications so that teams can focus on application-level business logic, without unnecessary ties to specific deployment environments.
      Scala
      Scala is an acronym for “Scalable Language”. This means that Scala grows with you. You can play with it by typing one-line expressions and observing the results. But you can also rely on it for large mission critical systems, as many companies, including Twitter, LinkedIn, or Intel do. To some, Scala feels like a scripting language. Its syntax is concise and low ceremony; its types get out of the way because the compiler can infer them.
      Erlang
      Some of Erlang's uses are in telecoms, banking, e-commerce, computer telephony and instant messaging. Erlang's runtime system has built-in support for concurrency, distribution and fault tolerance. OTP is set of Erlang libraries and design principles providing middle-ware to develop these systems.
      Kafka
      Kafka is a distributed, partitioned, replicated commit log service. It provides the functionality of a messaging system, but with a unique design.
      Spring Boot
      Spring Boot makes it easy to create stand-alone, production-grade Spring based Applications that you can "just run". We take an opinionated view of the Spring platform and third-party libraries so you can get started with minimum fuss. Most Spring Boot applications need very little Spring configuration.
