How can I reach a specific replica of a stateless service

I've created a stateless service within Service Fabric. It has a SingletonPartition, but multiple instances (InstanceCount is -1 in my case).

I want to communicate with a specific replica of this service. To find all replica's I use:

var fabricClient = new FabricClient();
var serviceUri = new Uri(SERVICENAME);

Partition partition = (await fabricClient.QueryManager.GetPartitionListAsync(serviceUri)).First();
foreach(Replica replica in await fabricClient.QueryManager.GetReplicaListAsync(partition.PartitionInformation.Id))
{
  // communicate with this replica, but how to construct the proxy?
  //var eventHandlerServiceClient = ServiceProxy.Create<IService>(new Uri(replica.ReplicaAddress));
}

The problem is that there is no overload of the ServiceProxy to create one to the replica. Is there another way to communicate with a specific replica?

Edit

The scenario we are building is the following. We have different moving parts with counter information: 1 named partitioned stateful service (with a couple of hundred partitions), 1 int64 partitioned stateful service, and 1 actor with state. To aggregate the counter information, we need to reach out to all service-partitions and actor-instances.

We could of course reverse it and let everyone send there counts to a single (partitioned) service. But that would add a network call in the normal flow (and thus overhead).

Instead, we came up with the following. The mentioned services&actors are combined into one executable and one servicemanifest. Therefore they are in the same process. We add a stateless service with instancecount -1 to the mentioned services&actors. All counter information is stored inside a static variable. The stateless service can read this counter information. Now, we only need to reach out to the stateless service (which has an upper limit of the number of nodes).

Solution

Just to get some terminology out of the way first, "replica" only applies to stateful services where you have a unique replica set for each partition of a service and replicate state between them for HA. Stateless services just have instances, all of which are equal and identical.

Now to answer your actual question: ServiceProxy doesn't have an option to connect to a specific instance of a deployed stateless service. You have the following options:

Primary replica: connect to the primary replica of a stateful service partition.
Random instance: connect to a random instance of a stateless service.
Random replica: connect to a random replica - regardless of its role - of a stateful service partition.
Random secondary replica - connect to a random secondary replica of a stateful service partition.

E.g.:

ServiceProxy.Create<IMyService>(serviceUri, partitionKey, TargetReplicaSelector.RandomInstance)

So why no option to connect to a specific stateless service instance?

Well, I would turn this question around and ask why would you want to connect to a specific stateless service instance? By definition, each stateless instance should be identical. If you are keeping some state in there - like user sessions - then now you're stateful and should use stateful services.

You might think of intelligently deciding which instance to connect to for load balancing, but again since it's stateless, no instance should be doing more work than any other as long as requests are distributed evenly. And for that, Service Proxy has the random distribution option.

With that in mind, if you still have some reason to seek out specific stateless service instances, you can always use a different communication stack - like HTTP - and do whatever you want.
