Description

Hi
I'm working on an event-sourcing system on top of Orleans. I gonna store all events permanently in DB.
The question is:
Is Orleans Serializer stable enough to we rely on for storing data? (I mean would be any probable breaking changes in the future?)

I have 2 option:
1. Orleans Serializer
2. Protobuf

And the possibility of breaking changes is the only reason if I gonna go with Protobuf

Research direction

Review Orleans Serializer's documented compatibility and stability guarantees, then compare them with the stated Protobuf alternative for permanently stored event data. Done means the project documents whether Orleans Serializer is suitable for durable event storage and explains any relevant breaking-change risks.
