Using Project Orleans to Build Actor-Based Solutions on the .Net Platform
This article takes a look at Project Orleans, an actor model framework from Microsoft. Version 7 makes it a lot easier to get started with, as it builds on top of the .NET IHost abstraction. This allows us to add it to .NET applications in a simple way. On top of that it abstracts away most of the complicated parts, allowing us to focus on the important stuff, the problems we need to solve.
