Shardcake

Shardcake is a Scala open source library that makes it easy to distribute entities across multiple servers and interact with those entities using their ID without knowing their actual location (this is also known as location transparency).

Shardcake exposes a purely functional API and depends heavily on ZIO.

The Documentation explains how to use Shardcake, in particular:

how to get started
the architecture behind Shardcake
how to configure it
parts you can customize

actor-model

functional-programming

messaging

scala

sharding
