Build fault tolerant, distributed Cloud applications with Kubernetes & Temporal

Temporal is a fault-tolerant, distributed and scalable microservices orchestration platform. It allows developers to focus on business logic when building their distributed applications, meanwhile offloading the hard stuff like dealing with data consistency, queues, retry mechanisms, durable timers, transactions, etc.
In this talk we will give an introduction to Temporal.

We will also present a demo that will show how to start orchestrating microservices with Temporal, as well as show integration with CNCF projects such as CloudEvents and Serverless Workflow DSL.
