Hi,

Akonadi is started on demand, when an application that uses it is first 
started. 

Except for usual PIM application, Akonadi can also be started by the "Digital 
Clock" Plasma applet, to provide integration with calendars. You can disable 
this behavior by unchecking "Display events" checkbox in applet settings 
dialog.
