Tests / documentation for clustering

smalldave opened this issue · comments

This isn't so much an issue as an interest.

What are the plans for clustering. Any tests / documentation.

@smalldave just started working on formal documentation for Reactors / Fibers and all of the major networking plumbing this week.

As for clustering, while I have that stuff stubbed out inside Helios it's not quite in a functional state yet. My goal is to be able to add components that can be used to create middle-tier service discovery, load-balancing, and failover for custom services.

Sounds good. Any thoughts on the implementation yet?

Also how does this fit in with Akka clustering that Akka.Net is planning to port?

@smalldave unless someone else does it first, I think I'm on-point to port clustering to Akka.NET. That's going to be based off of the approach used by Typesafe in the canonical Akka implementation, and I'll probably port that first before I build anything into Helios.
