The Reliable Actor programming model

Reliable Actors is a Service Fabric application framework based on the Virtual Actor pattern. This actor-pattern-based application framework is built on top of Service Fabric Reliable Services. It provides an API with a single-threaded programming model that uses the scalability and reliability capabilities of Service Fabric. 

The actor pattern is a model that is used for distributed systems. An actor is an isolated and independent unit of compute and state with a single-threaded execution. The actor pattern is used for distributed systems where a large number of actors can execute simultaneously and independently of each other. Actors can communicate with each other and they can create more actors.
