What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides the tools and best practices to build highly reliable, fault-tolerant applications using TypeScript and the DBOS SDK, ensuring your applications can recover from failures and operate consistently.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Durable Workflows: Define and execute workflows that are automatically recovered and resumed after system restarts or failures.
- Resilient Steps: Implement external operations (API calls, database interactions) as steps that can be retried automatically.
- Managed Concurrency: Utilize queues to control the flow and concurrency of workflow executions, preventing resource exhaustion.
- Use Case: Develop an order processing system where each order is a workflow. If the system crashes mid-processing, DBOS automatically resumes the order workflow from where it left off, ensuring no orders are lost or duplicated.
Quick Start
Use the dbos-typescript skill to create a new DBOS workflow that fetches data from an external API and logs the result.
