  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • Orleans.CosmosDB

    Discontinued Orleans providers for Azure Cosmos DB

  • Reminders were also very easy to setup. Until I tried to configure real world persistence for them that is. At this point in my research I was trying to keep things neat and tidy and store everything in ComsosDB. Unfortunately, I could not get the reminder persistence package for Orleans to work at all. I wound up having to use the AzureStorage package instead. So now my data was half in a SQL API account and half in a Table API account.

  • docs

    Dapr user documentation, used to build docs.dapr.io (by dapr)

  • There was a similar issue with the code examples to get/set state, so I created a GitHub issue for them.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • dapr

    Dapr is a portable, event-driven, runtime for building distributed applications across cloud and edge.

  • This past week I took a trip way out into the woods of software development by studying the idea of virtual actors. I wound up studying two different frameworks : Dapr and Orleans.
