Running Multi-Nodes Akka Cluster on Docker

Akka a great actor framework for the JVM.  Akka is high performance with high throughput and low latency, resilient by Design.  It's possible to use Akka with Java however I always used and recommend you use with Scala . Create actors systems is pretty easy however creating multiple nodes on Akka cluster locally could be boring and error-prone. So I want to show how easy is to create an Akka cluster using Scala and Docker (Engine & Docker-Compose). We will create a very simple actor system, we will just log events on the cluster however you can use this as a base to do more complex code.
