Hello Ram,

ClusterClient/ClusterReceptionist are relatively low-level tools.

I see you're already familiar with Cluster Sharding. Wouldn't that be a
possible solution for "creating an actor somewhere on the cluster without
the original requestor having to bother where it needs to be created"?

If not, could you explain your situation in a bit more detail?


Kind regards,

Arnout
