What is Akka
Akka is the only full-stack platform for agentic AI: developer experience, runtime, and governance in one integrated system.
Platform Overview
Akka combines everything you need to build, run, and govern agentic AI systems:
-
Spec-Driven Development — Describe what you need in plain language. Akka generates the full specification and a production-ready system. Engineers, product managers, and non-technical builders can all contribute.
-
Professional SDK — Multi-agent orchestration (A2A, ACP, MCP), autonomous and sequential agents with tools and handoffs, real-time stream processing, durable memory with sub-10ms read/write, and HTTP/gRPC APIs.
-
Runtime — Clustering, resilience, zero trust networking, data sharding, and traffic steering. Deploy on Akka’s cloud, within your hyperscaler VPC, or on your own Kubernetes infrastructure.
-
Integrated Tooling — Developers get tracing, debugging, and agent analysis. Operations gets a control tower with OTEL export. Compliance gets explainability and interaction logging. FinOps gets token tracking and cost optimization. InfoSec gets policy enforcement and guardrails.
-
Automated Operations (AAO) — A private, regionalized installation within your VPC. Active-active HA/DR, elastic scaling to 10 million agentic TPS with scale-to-zero, no-downtime rolling updates, and live CVE patching.
What Makes Akka Unique
These are guarantees no other agentic AI vendor makes:
-
99.9999% availability guarantee for your agentic AI applications and services
-
Resilience guarantee backed by indemnities on the security and integrity of your data
-
Sub-10ms read/write of agentic AI memory (most vendors offer ~200ms bolt-on memory)
-
Shared compute model that lowers cloud infrastructure costs up to 90%
-
Sub-1 minute Recovery Time Objective with 0 byte Recovery Point Objective
-
Fully sovereign cloud deployment option preserving HA/DR across China, EU, Singapore, and more
-
Real-time AI policy enforcement engine fully embedded within the runtime
