+
+## Summary
+This library provides an integration of Redis Streams with Microsoft Orleans, allowing you to use Redis as a streaming provider within your Orleans applications. It enables seamless communication and data streaming between Orleans grains and external clients using Redis Streams.
+
+## How to Use the Redis Provider with Orleans
+
+### 1. With Grain as a Client
+To use Redis Streams with a grain as a client, follow these steps:
+
+1. Install the necessary NuGet packages:
+    ```sh
+    dotnet add package Orleans.Streaming.Redis
+    ```
+
+2. Configure the Redis stream provider in your Orleans silo configuration:
+    ```csharp
+    var host = new SiloHostBuilder()
+        .AddRedisStreams("RedisProvider", options =>
+        {
+            options.ConnectionString = "your_redis_connection_string";
+        })
+        .Build();
+    ```
+
+3. In your grain, use the stream provider to send and receive messages:
+    ```csharp
+    public class MyGrain : Grain, IMyGrain
+    {
+        private IAsyncStream<string> _stream;
+
+        public override async Task OnActivateAsync()
+        {
+            var streamProvider = GetStreamProvider("RedisProvider");
+            _stream = streamProvider.GetStream<string>(this.GetPrimaryKey(), "streamNamespace");
+            await base.OnActivateAsync();
+        }
+
+        public async Task SendMessage(string message)
+        {
+            await _stream.OnNextAsync(message);
+        }
+
+        public async Task ReceiveMessages()
+        {
+            var handle = await _stream.SubscribeAsync((message, token) =>
+            {
+                Console.WriteLine($"Received message: {message}");
+                return Task.CompletedTask;
+            });
+        }
+    }
+    ```
+
+### 2. With External Client
+To use Redis Streams with an external client, follow these steps:
+
+1. Install the StackExchange.Redis package:
+    ```sh
+    dotnet add package StackExchange.Redis
+    ```
+
+2. Connect to the Redis server and interact with the stream:
+    ```csharp
+    using StackExchange.Redis;
+
+    var redis = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect("your_redis_connection_string");
+    var db = redis.GetDatabase();
+
+    // Add a message to the stream
+    var messageId = await db.StreamAddAsync("mystream", "message", "Hello, Redis!");
+
+    // Read messages from the stream
+    var messages = await db.StreamReadAsync("mystream", "0-0");
+    foreach (var message in messages)
+    {
+        Console.WriteLine($"Message ID: {message.Id}, Values: {string.Join(", ", message.Values)}");
+    }
+    ```
