Leveraging the Actor Model in Financial Transaction Systems

In the dynamic realm of financial services, managing concurrency effectively is crucial for maintaining data consistency and operational efficiency.

This talk explores the implementation of the Actor Model in money-processing systems, leveraging tools like Kafka within distributed systems.

Our approach addresses common concurrency challenges by promoting a model where the best concurrency is inherently no concurrency.

You will learn about typical problems in processing financial transactions. We will discuss possible ways of solving them and take a detailed look at the architecture we came up with in our project.
