Akka.Aspire.Hosting

.NET Aspire hosting integration for Akka.NET clusters. Add it to your Aspire AppHost to declare a cluster's topology — discovery backend, replica count, ports — and every service replica wired with WithReference will automatically discover its peers, form a cluster, and report health.

Pair it with the service-side Akka.Aspire package, which reads the configuration this package injects.

Installation

dotnet add package Akka.Aspire.Hosting

Usage (AppHost)

using Akka.Aspire.Hosting;

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// A discovery-backend Aspire resource (Redis here; Azure Table Storage is also supported)
var redis = builder.AddRedis("akka-discovery");

// Declare the Akka.NET cluster and bind its discovery backend
var akka = builder.AddAkka("my-cluster")
    .WithClustering(redis);

// Wire the cluster into a replicated service
builder.AddProject<Projects.MyService>("service")
    .WithHttpEndpoint(name: "http")
    .WithReplicas(3)
    .WithReference(akka);

builder.Build().Run();

AddAkka declares the cluster; WithClustering(resource) binds the discovery backend (the provider type is auto-detected from the resource — e.g. Redis, AzureTableStorage); and WithReference(akka) injects the resulting configuration into each service replica.

What it injects

WithReference(akka) sets these environment variables on each replica, which the service-side Akka.Aspire package reads via IConfiguration:

Variable Purpose
Akka__Cluster__Enabled Enables clustering
Akka__Cluster__RemotePort / Akka__Cluster__ManagementPort Unique ports per replica
Akka__Cluster__PublicHostName / Akka__Cluster__ServiceName Discovery identity
Akka__Cluster__RequiredContactPointsNr Derived from the replica count
Akka__Cluster__Clustering__ProviderType Auto-detected from the resource type
Akka__Cluster__Clustering__ConnectionStringName The Aspire resource name for the discovery backend
ConnectionStrings__<name> The connection string for that backend

Supported discovery backends

Complete Redis and Azure Table Storage samples live under src/aspire/examples/ in the Akka.Management repository.

Version Downloads Last Updated
1.5.70 136 8/18/2026

* Update to [Akka.NET v1.5.70](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/releases/tag/1.5.70)
* Update to [Akka.Hosting v1.5.70](https://github.com/akkadotnet/Akka.Hosting/releases/tag/1.5.70)
* **New package: [`Akka.Discovery.Redis`](Akka.Discovery.Redis)** — Redis-based service discovery for Akka.Cluster.Bootstrap. Each node registers under a TTL key and refreshes it on a heartbeat; dead nodes expire automatically (no separate pruning process) and stale entries are filtered out of lookups. A lightweight alternative to `Akka.Discovery.Azure`, well suited to Redis-backed environments and .NET Aspire local development. ([#3444](https://github.com/akkadotnet/Akka.Management/pull/3444))
* **New: .NET Aspire integration** — [`Akka.Aspire.Hosting`](Akka.Aspire.Hosting) (AppHost side) and [`Akka.Aspire`](Akka.Aspire) (service side) bring automated Akka.NET cluster formation to [.NET Aspire](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspire). Declare the discovery backend and replica count in your AppHost, and each service replica auto-discovers its peers, forms a cluster, and reports readiness through a health check — no manual HOCON. ([#3445](https://github.com/akkadotnet/Akka.Management/pull/3445))
