I'm a principal software engineer and partner at Aurum AS. A nice development consultancy based in Oslo with senior staff only. We take roles such as tech lead and architect in customer projects and thrive when we can bridge the business and product owner with software development. We work with DevOps and development processes, software architecture, front and server side development on both hosted and cloud platforms.

From C# monolith to functional actors with Orleans and F#
45 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
This is an experience talk from my work with NRK, the
Norwegian Broadcasting Company, Norway's public broadcaster.
Over the last 3-4 years we've taken the TV and radio streaming sites from a monolith to multiple
domain based services. We'll look at how we've transitioned the from a pure object oriented development team to a function friendly organzation, how gorwing the organization forced us to work with Conways law, as well as a deep dive into the bounded context of personalization.
Keeping track of user progress and favorite shows is the responsibility of Personalization domain, with high performance requirements and surprisingly
complex business rules. With new business rules and changing architecture, Personalization was in dire need of work. Combining FSharp and its typesystem and immutability with Orleans, an open source Virtual Actor platform for distributed high-scale computing applications, provided us with functional programming with OO principles in a fast and scalable platform. I'll show why we chose this path, the benefits we gained going from C# to F# and some of the lessons learned building on an actor model.
