One frequent request from users: a simple way to migrate from Temporal to Postgres-backed durable workflows. Today we're releasing DBOSify: a drop-in replacement for Temporal built on Postgres (using DBOS). github.com/dbos-inc/dbo...

Some of the highlights from the last month: - Bulk workflow forking - RBAC support - Multi-facet filters and aggregate views - OpenMetrics export - Low-latency durable streams - Pluggable transactional data sources - Atomic bulk workflow messaging - Google ADK integration dbos.dev/blog/new-in-...

We wrote a new blog post on why co-locating workflow state with your data is powerful: www.dbos.dev/blog/co-loca... When workflow metadata and application data live in the same database, they can be updated in the same transaction. That simplifies tough problems like atomicity and idempotency.

Save state. Resume from the last success. That's durable execution in one sentence. 🔄 Jeremy Edberg at @dbos.dev joins us on the latest episode of "Hello, Agent!" to explain why this primitive matters so much for agentic systems. Check out Ep 3 ⬇️ www.redpanda.com/hello-agent/...

Join us at this month's DBOS User Group! We're focusing on workflow observability this time. Come meet other DBOS users and the DBOS team. Register here: luma.com/48twdj1n?tk=...

I just pulled the trigger on DBOS Transact for Java v0.9. Major new features include: * Step Factories / @TransactionalStep - checkpoint DBOS steps inside a transaction * Dynamic Queues - queues can now be created/updated/deleted at runtime

We just released DBOS Transact for Go v0.16.0 This release adds support for SQLite as a durability backend. SQLite is a great fit for local development, edge deployments, and lightweight applications that still need reliable recovery from failures. Release notes: github.com/dbos-inc/dbo...

💬 EP 3. Hello, Agent: How do you make AI agents fail-safe? Jeremy Edberg, C-Suite Advisor at @dbos.dev explains how durable execution solves reliability issues, its role in building prod-ready AI agents, & shares insights from his time at Netflix/Reddit on enterprise-scale reliability engineering.🎧

Over the past month, the DBOS product team has focused heavily on two areas: workflow operations tooling and performance optimization. Would love to hear your thoughts, especially from folks running workflows in production. Read the full update here: dbos.dev/blog/new-in-...

We just released the much-requested Google ADK + DBOS integration: durable execution for ADK agents, backed directly by your database. - Official Google ADK doc: adk.dev/integrations... - DBOS ADK plugin repo: github.com/dbos-inc/dbo... - DBOS doc: docs.dbos.dev/integrations... Feedback welcome!

I recently discovered that several developers are using Clojure with @dbos.dev Transact Java. We don't have official support (yet!) but I just published a Clojure version of the standard DBOS Starter app. Just the ticket for any other developers looking to add durable execution to their Clojure app

Our next @southbaysystems.xyz meetup is on May 26! We're covering one of my favorite topics: databases, and how to use them to make better architectural decisions and build reliable systems. Food and drinks will be provided courtesy of our hosts at PingCAP. Register here: luma.com/3j9twotu?tk=...

We just published the demo video from our latest DBOS user group! Big thanks to Adrian from @llamaindex.bsky.social for walking through the DBOS integration with LlamaAgents, an open-source Python framework for building and deploying document-centric AI agents. 🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=R14T...

I just wrote a new blog post about it. It discusses auto configuration, Spring AOP proxies and what I am already working on for our next release. dbos.dev/blog/spring-...

A new blog post from Mike: Why Event-driven Programming is Usually a Poor Architecture dbos.dev/blog/goto-co...

We wrote a blog post to answer the perennial question: "Does Postgres scale?" Curious to hear what people think. Feedback welcome: dbos.dev/blog/benchma...

Highlights include: * Moving API interface from static to instance methods * Initial Kotlin and Spring Boot support * Interop with DBOS Python, TypeScript, Go and PL/pgSQL * Improved testing infra using parallel Testcontainers that runs the whole test suite in about 90 seconds on my local dev box

I just published the 0.8 release of DBOS Transact for Java. It's been about three months since our last release. Doesn't seem like much time, but when I look over the release notes...We sure got a lot of stuff done. Release notes: github.com/dbos-inc/dbo...

Join us May 7 for DBOS User Group! We'll focus on what actually works in production: - LlamaIndex + DBOS (Adrian Lyjak): building agent workflows that survive restarts/errors. - Scaling to 4B workflows/day on Postgres w/ @petereliaskraft.net, what worked, what didn't. Sign up: luma.com/chh8mw4f

We published the demo video from our last user group. Huge thanks to Michael Pfaffenberger for walking through Code Puppy, an open-source coding agent he built that's widely used at Walmart. 🔗 youtu.be/k8VWCqj0LCc

A new podcast from Mike with really great content! I especially enjoyed hearing how he got started in his career and his perspective on the problems we'll face in the AI era. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPOb...

Published a new blog post covering the latest batch of features and integrations we shipped this past month. We focused on two areas that matter a lot in production: interoperability and privacy-preserving operations. Read the full update here: dbos.dev/blog/dbos-ne...

Exciting partnership news today - DBOS announced a technology partnership with Databricks and an integration with Databricks Lakebase to help Agentic AI developers build agents that are fault tolerant and observable by default. Check it out: www.prnewswire.com/news-release...

Join us for the DBOS User Group on April 9! We're excited to have Michael Pfaffenberger (Distinguished Software Engineer at Walmart Global Tech) share Code Puppy, an open-source AI-powered coding agent used by teams across the organization. luma.com/8mvkdagu

Our next South Bay Systems meetup will be on March 31. We've got two awesome deep-dive talks from Sugu Sougoumarane (Consensus and Multigres) and @stuhood.sh (Full-Text Search and ParadeDB). Food and beverages will be provided, courtesy of our host, Snowflake. Register here: luma.com/2g3exvjw

Applications already depend on a database (usually Postgres). So why not use the database itself as the bridge between languages? We just published a new blog post on how we tackled language interoperability without adding another layer of infrastructure. www.dbos.dev/blog/making-...

Creating agent workflows and architecting the logic is one thing, making them durable and fail-safe is another👇 New integration for durable agent workflows with @dbos.dev execution - Make sure your agents survive crashes, restarts, and errors without writing any checkpoint code.

We're starting a new series highlighting the features and integrations our team has been shipping each month. We shipped Kotlin support, workflow patching & lineage tracking, dynamic cron, configurable alerting, a new MCP server, and more. Read the full update here: www.dbos.dev/blog/dbos-ne...

Coding agents are already great at writing durable workflows. But operating them, especially when things break, is much harder. If multiple workflows fail with unexpected errors, how do you find the root cause, test, and apply a fix? That's why we built DBOS MCP www.dbos.dev/blog/mcp-age...

Cool new feature: Dynamic workflow schedules! The idea is to store workflow schedules in Postgres so you can dynamically create, view, update, and delete them at runtime, as well as (coming soon) view them from a dashboard. Plus, our new design supports backfilling and manual triggering.

I wrote a new blog post with @pydantic.dev! With the Pydantic AI + DBOS integration, agent runs are automatically checkpointed to Postgres. Executions are durable and observable with DBOS + Pydantic Logfire. Check it out: pydantic.dev/articles/pyd...

A presentation so nice, I'm doing it twice. I'll be delivering my Building Reliable Workflows in Java talk again on Feb 24th, this time in Seattle. If you're a Java (or Kotlin!) developer, come hear all about what you can do with DBOS. www.meetup.com/seajug/event...

OpenAI Agents SDK + @dbos.dev integration is now live! You can run OpenAI agents with durable execution backed directly by your database. DBOS embeds as a library, so it works anywhere, even inside a local coding agent. Check it out, and any feedback is welcome: openai.github.io/openai-agent...

DBOS is coming to skills.sh You can now teach your coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, anything) how to write durable workflows by just running: `npx skills add dbos-inc/agent-skills` Available in Python and TypeScript.

Check out this new release of Pydantic AI: parallel tool execution in DBOS agents with deterministic replay. The newly added execution mode runs tool calls in parallel, then emits events in a stable order. This makes agent execution reproducible and crash-recoverable without sacrificing latency.

Love this template. It shows how you can build reliable apps in a serverless environment with DBOS.

Cool new collaboration: a @vercel.com + @supabase.com + DBOS template! It's a simple pattern for running reliable background jobs: - Write tasks as DBOS workflows (regular TS/JS) - Enqueue them from your app - Vercel functions pick them up and run them automatically vercel.com/templates/te...

Harry Pierson speaking at the Portland Java User Group #dbos @dbos.dev @devhawk.net

Fivetran - DBOS webinar tomorrow, Jan 28 at 9AM PT/12PM ET Learn how to build a control plane that safely manages Fivetran Connector SDK state changes using DBOS durable workflows. It enables idempotency, automatic recovery, and enterprise-grade reliability‚ without complex custom orchestration.

A nice feature in the latest DBOS Python release: you can now call async steps concurrently with native syntax from a workflow. To make that possible, we added code to set a unique ID for each step before it begins, so even though the step executions overlap they’re checkpointed deterministically.

The January DBOS User Group kicks off 2026 tomorrow: luma.com/v94dyuk5 Agenda: ​- How to self-host and scale DBOS Conductor. ​- New DBOS Conductor pricing. ​- CommonSense AI explains their DBOS use case and journey, transforming local government operations with AI. - 2026 roadmap See you soon!

This is a must-read annual review on database systems. 👀

Our first meetup of the year! 🍻

The keyword of 2025 for me is: community. This includes @dbos.dev, @southbaysystems.xyz, and several open-source projects. 🧵 Thanks to everyone who was part of my 2025. I'm proud of what we built, clearer about what matters, and excited about the year ahead.

2025 has been a wild year for DBOS. Huge thanks to you all for the support, feedback, and trust along the way. Looking forward to making reliable software even easier to build in 2026 🚀

Simplicity wins. I really appreciated the shoutout: "Integrating durable workflows through DBOS solved our distributed system headaches without adding ops overhead." www.decodingai.com/p/building-v...

People used to complain that the DBOS UI wasn't available locally. Good news: it is now, and it's free for open-source local dev. Run a local DBOS UI right on your laptop and actually see your workflows while you build. Debugging hits different when it's visual. docs.dbos.dev/production/s...

Cool new feature: explicit queue listening! You can now configure exactly which queues each of your workers listens to. This is especially helpful if you have heterogeneous workers (such as some workers for GPU tasks and others for CPU-intensive tasks) as you can easily divide work between them.

Want to hear what two database professors Mike Stonebraker and @andypavlo.bsky.social really think about AI and data systems, plus a recap of 2025 and predictions for 2026? In case you missed the webinar, watch the full recording here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnQK...
