Actor based programming using Orleans
Known for underpinning the Halo 4 server-side components, Orleans offers an actor based approach to programming for the cloud. This simplifies the programming model by removing shared state and thread safety concerns, and unlocks the potential for huge horizontal scale out.
The talk will be an overview of the architecture, and a live coding demonstration.
Richard has had early access to the technology, which will hopefully be publically available by the time of NDC London.
