I used Cluster Singleton with much success, starting at the very beginning of 2016: https://github.com/artsy/atomic-store/
Are you still using Akka these days?
Sorry for the delay!

Nope. The two companies I have since worked have mature products that aren't built on the JVM or Scala. But I'd absolutely consider it if I were to build a system with similar constraints again.

There was a big learning curve, but the end result was a system that was built largely correctly, on a tight timeline, solving some tricky technical and business challenges.
