You don’t remove things in an event sourced application. You mark as deleted.

In case of snapshot, I will just remove it from the linked queue and save the snapshot. How can I achieve the same using persist message? For ex: Consider I have received the 5 messages A,B,C,D,E and I have persisted them. Now another actor is reading this queue and processing A, once it is done, I need to remove it from the queue. How can I remove the persisted message A? so that after restart or jvm crash, I won't process the message again?

Snapshotting should not be used for every message - it should be used once in a while. — konrad On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 7:40 AM, Karthik Chandraraj <ckart...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi, As per the suggestion, I implemented a QueueActor, which will saveSnapshot for every message it receives or removed. And then a ProcessActor, which will read the message from the QueueActor to process it. Is this the right way to implement durable mailbox with akka-persistence? Problem I see with this approach is, for every message, the data is written to the file. Can we achieve durability only with this performance hit?

That means if one wants to have an Actor that does not loose messages upon being killed then sender must use AtLeastOnce delivery trait (or some other means of durability with akka-persistence or not) to deliver messages to that Actor. Let me know if that helped. On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 2:03 PM, Karthik Chandraraj <ckart...@gmail.com> wrote: Consider there are 100 messages in the mailbox and the actor is processing the first. If the process is killed, what happens to the 99 messages? When I was searching about this, I came across durable mailboxes, but the doc says 'durable mailboxes superseded by akka-persistence'. When I went though akka persistence, it said the actor state can be persisted, it doesn't talk about mailboxes? using akka-persistence, actors state can be stored, but what about messages that are in the mailbox and not received? can someone please explain? -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
