DBOS

What do financial processing and AI software factories have in common? - Durable workflows At yesterday's DBOS User Group, we had two great talks from teams building with DBOS: - Credix: Using DBOS for financial processing - Cortex: Building an AI software factory powered by durable workflows

New releases across DBOS Transact SDKs: TypeScript v5.3, Python v3.3, and Go v1.7. One important change across all three releases: we moved the DBOS Conductor client into a separate Enterprise package. This change will allow us to deliver several exciting new features in the coming weeks.

If you're only using the open-source DBOS libraries, nothing changes and just upgrade as usual. If you're using DBOS Conductor or DBOS Cloud, you'll need to install the Enterprise dependency when upgrading. We'll be rolling out the same change for Java soon.

Join us for the next DBOS User Group Meetup on October 22! This month, Credix and Cortex will share how they're using DBOS to build durable workflows for commercial lending and AI software factories. We'll also share the results of our roadmap survey. Register here: luma.com/2f5n3nr1?tk=...

Just released DBOS Python 3.2 and TypeScript 5.2! These releases include several improvements to datasources: - Programmatic datasource migrations - Garbage collection for datasource checkpoints - Custom sessionmaker support for the Python SQLAlchemy datasource

We just released v1.4.0 of DBOS Go This release adds: - Native support for fair partitioned queues - Payload table normalization (splitting workflow inputs and outputs into their own tables) that significantly improved performance and scalability Release notes: github.com/dbos-inc/dbo...

Just released DBOS Python 3.0 and DBOS TypeScript 5.0! Highlights include schema changes (splitting workflow inputs and outputs into their own tables) that substantially improve performance at scale, especially when data volumes are large. Also large optimizations to workflow retention policies.

As major versions, these remove some deprecated/legacy interfaces. We’ve published upgrade guides to help you migrate away from these if you’re still using them. Python upgrade guide: docs.dbos.dev/python/upgra... TS upgrade guide: docs.dbos.dev/typescript/u...

Want to know how we built durable execution in Rust on top of Postgres? Check out this video for a first look at DBOS Rust, where @devhawk.net walks through how it works under the hood and demos what building durable Rust applications with DBOS looks like. youtu.be/kaQnXNwjcGc

Check out this new tutorial video. @devhawk.net demonstrates the new DBOS Conductor CLI tool, dbosctl, for managing durable workflow execution. youtu.be/77A21Sqt5Ug

We just released DBOS Python 2.31 and DBOS TypeScript 4.27! Highlights 🧵: - A new backwards-compatible interface for partitioned queues, making it easier to combine queue-wide and per-partition concurrency limits and implement fair queueing.

- Durable stream improvements, including read timeouts and point reads from a specific offset. - Workflow completion timeouts during shutdown, allowing DBOS to safely wait for local workflows to finish. - Step timeout support in Python, bringing it in line with TypeScript.

Just released DBOS Python 2.30 and TypeScript 4.26. The biggest new feature is that multiple DBOS applications (even those written in different languages) can now share a system database. This makes it much easier to build interoperable, polyglot DBOS applications. docs.dbos.dev/explanations...

Six years ago, DBOS started as a joint research project at MIT and Stanford on applying database principles to modern applications. Today we announced a major milestone: the issuance of U.S. Patent for our database-centric durable workflow architecture.

This recognizes the unique approach we’ve taken to simplify durable workflow orchestration by turning the database itself into a workflow engine, rather than hosting specialized infrastructure to do the same. We're so grateful to be building this!
