One pattern is having a Workflow that runs as long as the lifetime of a domain object and holds a conceptual lock on that object—it receives requests to modify the object, and makes sure to only perform one operation at a time. (like the state pattern on a particular agent)

Also related: Signals are events that you can send to Workflows and between Workflows, and they’re always delivered in the order they’re received.

More generally, for a handy reference of Distributed Systems patterns, check out https://microservices.io/patterns/data/saga.html (though I personally find his diagrams a bit...overwhelming) and the MSN writeups: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/pattern...
