Architecture

Actorkit is a fusion of CQRS, grains from Microsoft Orleans and actor-based message-passing principles within a a single library geared towards the creation of scalable, distributed and resilient applications built on the concept of transparent, addressable processing units or actors. It embraces the very nature of chaotic, failing system which is most transparent to the developer allowing the focus on creating systems able to resiliently function in such environments. These details become part of the architecture and not just a after development process managemeent routine.
