After numerous projects one-way asynchronous message passing looks like the only way to write concurrent distributed network services and keep your sanity.

I am looking for a simple, preferably open-source .NET or C++ library that implements a concept of asynchronous message passing similar to Erlang OTP platform. So far, I have only found RetLang to be somewhat similar, but

  1. It doesn’t support message passing over network, and
  2. It seems to be abandoned.

I also evaluated TPL, TPL DataFlow, and RxLib. None of them support what I am looking for. In C++ world I only looked at Boost.

“Concise explanation of Erlang-style concurrency”

Any pointers are welcome!

    Have you looked at MPI for C++? It seems to be the closest one I can think of that fits the description your provided i.e. it spawns processes with distinct memory spaces that cooperate by message passing.
