Service Fabric supports partitioning of Microservices. Partitioning is the concept of dividing data and compute into smaller units to improve the scalability and performance of a service.
A stateless Microservice can be of two types – one which stores the state externally and two which does not store a state. These Microservices are rarely partitioned as the scalability and the performance of the service can be enhanced by increasing the number of instances running the service. The only reason to partition a stateless service would be to achieve specialized routing requirements.
Service Fabric natively supports partitioning of state for a stateful service, thereby reducing the overheads on the developers around maintaining ...
