Code it like C# - Run it like Erlang - Implementing Grid Computing in the Cloud with Akka.NET

Explore the power of grid computing in the cloud using Akka.NET in this 55-minute conference talk. Discover how to leverage the capabilities of Erlang-like systems within the familiar C# environment. Learn to write small, single-threaded classes called "actors" and scale them effortlessly across multiple CPU cores and loosely-coupled machines in cloud environments like Amazon Web Services. Gain insights into managing concurrency across multiple machines, a critical challenge for .NET developers in the era of multi-core CPUs and affordable cloud infrastructure. Witness firsthand how Akka.NET enables you to parallelize thousands of jobs, bringing the legendary scalability of immutable and message-passing systems to the .NET ecosystem. Perfect for developers seeking to harness Erlang-like performance without leaving the comfort of C#, this talk demonstrates how to achieve impressive scalability and concurrency in cloud-based grid computing scenarios.
