As far as I know the following only two options: 1. Use a requestId (or context object as in Spray) that you pass along with your messages to your actors in the chain. The advantage is that you are not setting a timeout here. But you have to deal with co-relating messages yourself. 2. Use the ask pattern where you need to set a timeout but Akka will take care of getting the matching the request with the response.
I was wondering if there is any other way of doing this ?
