Welcome to Akka. Firstly, Hazlecast and Akka are not really the same beast. Akka is not "just a cache", it's active entities doing things - i.e. Actors, similar to like Erlang works with processes. So it may help to change the mindset a bit, since it's not a cache. It can however model very similar (though strictly more powerful) things.
For example for rebalancing and persistence etc you should have a look at: - cluster sharding (which combined with akka persistence gives you a solid foundation for super scalable event sourcing) - distributed data (which is picking the opposite trade off, being very fast in memory replicated data).

I used Hazelcast before. In hazelcast cluster the framework takes care of cluster auto re balancing, auto store n copies (n is configurable) of back up data on different nodes, Hazelcast executor service allows me to send a task to the "keyOwner" which allows me to have distributed data grid and computing grid. I am looking for similar out of shelf functionalities in akka, but could not find it. Looks like I have implement all of these by myself. Any pointer will be highly appreciated.
