In this talk, we will discuss how you can use Durable Execution to harden your applications in a few key areas: workflows, asynchronous tasks, microservice orchestration, and event processing.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could stop worrying about all possible failure scenarios and race conditions in your applications such as charging customers twice, users withdrawing more cash than they have, and selling a single ticket multiple times?
In the recent years, a new kid has appeared on the block of microservices orchestration: Durable Execution Engines. These engines persist the progress of code execution across services and time. They use this information to drive retries and recovery, and to ensure that code always runs till completion. Services that have Durable Execution enabled, can recover themselves to the exact point they were before a failure. Having this durability layer, speeds up the development of resilient applications.
In this talk, we will discuss how you can use Durable Execution to harden your applications in a few key areas: workflows, asynchronous tasks, microservice orchestration, and event processing. We will demonstrate each concept with live code examples, using Rust and Restate as the Durable Execution Engine.
After spending many happy years in Scala, not mutating anything but copying objects faster than rabbits breed I ventured into the world where each allocation is carefully examined and it is perfectly normal to reuse the same list for different purposes.
This talk explores lessons learned while building a CRDT library with JSON semantics, aimed at application developers.
I applied PGO to many kinds of software, collected a lot of carefully hidden traps on my journey, and found multiple ways how to avoid them. In this talk, I want to share with you my experience.
This talk dives into common anti-patterns, offering practical tips to sidestep frustration. Whether you're new to Rust or leveling up, you’ll leave with insights to write clean, idiomatic, and maintainable code—without the tears.
