Actix-Telepathy: Distributed Actor Programming in Rust

Explore the innovative Actix-Telepathy extension for Rust's Actix library in this 25-minute conference talk from REBLS 2023. Dive into the world of distributed computing and actor programming as presenters Phillip Wenig and Thorsten Papenbrock introduce a framework that enables remote messaging and clustering support for Rust applications. Learn how Actix-Telepathy allows developers to set up remote actors communicating across computer networks using a straightforward interface. Discover how this extension competes with popular actor libraries like Scala's Akka in terms of remote messaging performance and memory consumption. Gain insights into the actor programming model's benefits for concurrent and distributed application development, and see how Rust's efficient memory management is leveraged in this context.
