In this section, we will introduce you to a new Reactive Framework, that is, the Lagom Framework. We will discuss Lagom Framework basics, its features, benefits, and architecture.
Introduction to Lagom Framework
What is Lagom Framework?
Lagom Framework is an Opinionated Reactive microservices framework from the Lightbend team. Lagom is a Swedish word which means just the right amount. It also means adequate, sufficient, just right, and more.
We should pronounce it as Laah-Gome.
It implements the Reactive Manifesto.
It is built on top of the two popular frameworks from Lightbend, as shown in the following diagram:
- Akka Toolkit
- Play Framework
