Orbit

What is Orbit?

Orbit is a framework to write distributed systems using virtual
actors on the JVM. A virtual actor is an object that interacts with
the world using asynchronous messages.

At any time an actor may be active or inactive. Usually the state of
an inactive actor will reside in the database. When a message is sent
to an inactive actor it will be activated somewhere in the pool of
backend servers. During the activation process the actor's state is
read from the database.

Actors are deactivated based on timeout and on server resource usage.

It is heavily inspired by the Microsoft Orleans project.
