" summary

CME Group adopts Scala on the JVM to replace a greenfield service and ships a market state microservice built by five developers with heavy message passing, concurrency and persistence, deliberately using no synchronized keyword. The team spends eight months from greenlight to production after a five year push, ops accepts Scala jars into the existing Java pipeline, production support runs 24/7, and management now hires Scala engineers with growing momentum.
