Happy weekend! This week I wore my DBOS T-shirt three days out of five: One day for a talk recording One day for the DBOS user group One day for a podcast recording At this rate, I either need more T-shirts or I'll need to do laundry way too often.
Several people (thanks to @mitsuhiko and @samuel_colvin) noted early on that DBOS had too many dependencies. In the latest Python release, we trimmed it down to just 6 direct deps while still implementing durable workflows and queues in one library. We kept: - sqlalchemy +…
Just released a new major version of DBOS Python! The big improvement is a huge cut in package size, reducing DBOS from 18 to 6 direct dependencies and from 73 to 10 total dependencies. We want to be lightweight for real! We’ve also added more flexible configuration for your…

No wonder our GitHub Actions are failing...
Pinning workflows to a code version is a built-in feature DBOS supports. When a workflow starts, it's tagged with the version of the app process that started it. This way, you can safely change your workflow code without breaking past workflows - they'll continue to run on an…

I recorded my #p99conf talk yesterday, and my speaker swag box just arrived too! Super sweet and thoughtful gift. I already deployed stickers on my laptop :) Huge thanks to the organizers @ScyllaDB @c_a_dunlop for a smooth recording. Can't wait for the conference!
What makes building an open-source project special is seeing a community grow around it. That’s why I love our monthly user groups, to meet the community and learn what people are building with DBOS. Tomorrow, we’ll hear from @devstein64 on building reliable RAG pipelines and…
Lesson learned: never edit README on GitHub in the browser. Twice today, I was in the middle of editing, accidentally clicked a link that jumped to another page, hit back, and poof - everything was gone. Someone please give GitHub autosave (aka durable execution).

Debugging is fun, like solving a puzzle, especially with multiple dependencies involved. Today I first thought there was a bug in DBOS, then suspected Logfire, and finally pinpointed the issue to the OpenTelemetry Django instrumentor.
Don't miss this thought-provoking meet-up at the Yugabyte office next week!🚀
I was drained today from a weird migraine - headache, fatigue, the whole thing. Then I joined a meeting and started talking about DBOS and instantly felt better. I'm grateful and proud of what we're building. Happy weekend!
