----------------------------------------
Summary: Replace Akka by Pekko
Key: FLINK-32468
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-32468
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Runtime / Coordination
Reporter: Konstantin Knauf
Fix For: 1.18.0
Akka 2.6.x will not receive security fixes from September 2023 onwards (see
https://discuss.lightbend.com/t/2-6-x-maintenance-proposal/9949).
A mid-term plan to replace Akka is described in FLINK-29281. In the meantime,
we suggest to replace Akka by Apache Pekko (incubating), which is a fork of
Akka 2.6.x under the Apache 2.0 license. This way - if needed - we at least
have the ability to release security fixes ourselves in collaboration with the
Pekko community.
