Workflows, a New Abstraction for Distributed Systems

Explore the groundbreaking concept of Workflows as a new abstraction for distributed systems in this 39-minute conference talk from Strange Loop 2022. Learn how Workflow Systems mitigate challenges at the platform level, providing a developer experience for distributed systems comparable to database transactions. Discover how companies like Snap, Uber, and Netflix are adopting this paradigm, allowing developers to code as if failure doesn't exist. Gain insights from Dominik Tornow, Principal Engineer at Temporal, as he delves into systems modeling and the potential of Workflows to revolutionize distributed systems development.
