Durable Actors is an open-source Rust-based runtime that provides stateful serverless functions (actors) with durable state and serialized execution, positioned as a self-hostable alternative to Cloudflare Durable Objects. It offers type-safe SDKs for TypeScript and Python, built-in observability, and supports real-time applications like chat and collaborative editing without vendor lock-in.

Target audience: backend developers, devops, full-stack developers
