Introduction to Project Orleans for Your Distributed Applications

Explore the distributed virtual actor model and learn how to build robust, scalable distributed applications using the Orleans framework in this code-heavy conference talk from NDC Oslo. Discover the concept of grains, understand how shared state is stored in distributed applications, and gain insights into implementing Orleans for easier scaling. Delve into topics such as the C# script architecture, virtual actors, robot deployment, testing, grain models, Orleans Dashboard, cluster setup, silo management, timers, heterogeneous silos, Docker containers, host code, debugging techniques, garbage collection, asynchronous state management, and cleanup processes.
