Microsoft Orleans

If you want to build a distributed app or cloud native services, Orleans will be a reliable platform for achieving your goal. Controlled actor logic, a self-healing chain of clusters, nodes, and isolated data flows, allow you to create high-tech corporate or user apps.

Distributed.NET (or Orleans) has its own set of template APIs, libraries, and modules for implementing services and cloud environments, both standalone and embedded in a system or software.

The .NET ecosystem for creating modern IT solutions

The Orleans platform is designed to create cross-platform, reliable, distributed apps that provide high performance and security for cloud transactions or business processes.

Orleans features:

• Powerful tools for detecting and analyzing communication errors.
• Scalability for systems of almost any type and purpose.
• Intelligent process management and network self-diagnostics.
• High system performance, speed of processing requests, transactions, etc.
• Centralized management of actors, Silos, and clusters.
• Potential for creating a highly efficient partitioned server network.
• Peer-to-peer exchange of states, messages, or tasks between system actors.

In addition to the above, the Orleans behavior model creates controlled and safe conditions for interacting with Grains or GUIDs, allowing you to use the platform to build any software.

The versatility of Orleans for all industries or businesses

The value of Orleans lies in its capabilities when working with branched systems where processes are distributed across many servers. The larger the scale of your business network, the more efficiently the platform reveals itself, providing the entire system with stress resistance and high performance. That is why it is advisable to use this framework in the development of:

• Fintech solutions.
• Marketplaces.
• Social networks (or messengers).
• Large-scale corporate digital products.
• Streaming platforms.
• Service systems.
• IT infrastructure for business.
• Online games like MMORPG, or Halo (Halo 4 and Halo 5 cloud services based on Orleans)
• Any IT solutions that involve many servers and massive data flows.

However, the framework has a significant drawback: its performance under high loads. The fact is that one actor can process one operation in a certain period. Therefore, sometimes there are queues of requests, which negatively affects the UX. However, this problem is partially leveled if specialists create your project.

Delegate the task of developing an IT product with Orleans to industry experts – the Managed Code team. We will build a stress-resistant and high-performance cloud infrastructure that will allow you to scale your digital solutions and, consequently, your business unlimitedly.
