A great tool for messaging-oriented architectures just appeared on GitHub.  A thread-safe ZeroMQ socket interface for Scala simply called "scala-zeromq" has been shared by the dev team at the video stream management company, mDialog.  Here's the introduction from GitHub:

scala-zeromq facilitates communication using the ZeroMQ messaging library. ZeroMQ is a message-oriented socket communication library that support several high-level messaging patterns, including request-reply, publish-subscribe and push-pull. For a thorough description of how ZeroMQ works, read the guide.

Unlike many ZeroMQ libraries, scala-zeromq provides a completely threadsafe ZeroMQ socket interface. All socket communications are conducted using an immutable handle called a SocketRef. Under the hood, scala-zeromq uses Akka to ensure all socket interactions are handled safely and efficiently.


Although Akka already provides its own ZeroMQ extension, some say it has design problems and it is not completely thread-safe.  This is definitely worth a look if you're working with Scala and Akka.
