Orkes

In this insightful conversation with TechStrong TV, Orkes CEO Jeu George shares how Orkes is redefining workflow orchestration — building on the foundation of Netflix Conductor to serve enterprise-grade needs in a cloud-native, AI-augmented world. Key topics covered: The shift from microservices sprawl to unified orchestration How AI Agents are transforming end-to-end workflows Why reliability, scalability, and visibility are core to mission-critical systems From fintech to logistics to cutting-edge AI applications, Orkes is helping teams orchestrate billions of workflows every day — with precision, performance, and developer-first flexibility. 🎥 Watch the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/gViS-xj2 #Orkes

Want to kick the tires on the new Conductor MCP Server? Here’s a prompt to try: “Create a workflow that pulls live weather data (no API key required) and evaluates if it’s safe to fly a small plane around Seattle’s South Lake Union using Visual Flight Rules (VFR).” That means building a Conductor workflow that: - Hits public HTTP endpoints for current weather - Parses wind, visibility, cloud layers, etc. - Applies basic VFR logic - Outputs a clear go/no-go result It’s a great way to see how MCP-generated workflows can pull in real data, make decisions, and stay fully debuggable. No more wiring up retries by hand or slogging through JSON to get things working. Try it and let us know how it went: https://zurl.co/iIOKH Then join us on 7/22 for a virtual Developer Meetup where we’ll go deeper into how MCP works, what it unlocks for app and agent dev, and how to make the most of it.

If you’re stitching together AI agents, microservices, and random scripts with duct tape and good intentions—you’re not alone. We've been there. Half your day’s gone to digging through logs across five systems just to figure out why an LLM didn’t respond. That’s why we built the Conductor MCP Server. It gives you one place to run workflows and manage the other control planes you already use. - Build workflows that are actually debuggable - Trigger and monitor AI agents without writing another JSON glue script - Centralized auth, logging, and error handling—finally If you’re building agentic systems, automating across teams, or just trying to keep your services from falling over at 2am, it’s worth a look.

Agentic workflows that marvel at PlatformCon What happens when the Hulk tosses your car during a fight with Loki? You file an insurance claim—with AI. Today at 1PM EDT, Sr. Developer Advocate Michael Liendo is hosting a live workshop that blends LLMs, APIs, and human input into one orchestrated app—built on Orkes Developer Edition: https://lnkd.in/g9U6F2NG The workshop covers... - Build an _Avengers-inspired_ claims processing system - Use LLMs for autonomous decision making - Pause for real-time human input with webhook wait states - Dynamically branch logic with switch tasks - Create memory-aware loops that adapt over time You’ll walk away knowing how to build scalable, explainable workflows that don’t just run—they have agency. 1PM EDT / 10AM PDT Register HERE: https://zurl.co/YeEvR

🎓 This weekend, we’re heading to UC Berkeley for one of the most anticipated AI hackathon of the year. At the AI Hackathon at UC Berkeley, we’re looking forward to a weekend of hands-on building with the next generation of AI builders. Here’s what we’re bringing to the table: 🔹 Opening Session 🔹 Technical Workshop – A deep dive into building scalable, agentic workflows using Orkes Conductor 🔹 Dedicated Conductor Track – A hands-on challenge for teams ready to orchestrate powerful AI applications 🔹 Prizes – Because the best ideas deserve recognition If you’re building AI that plans, reflects, and scales—this is the track to be part of. See you there! 📅 June 21–22, 2025 📍Martin Luther King Jr. Building @ UC Berkeley 🔗 https://zurl.co/cPxii #AIHackathon #UCBerkeley #AgenticWorkflows #AgenticAI #AI

🆕 Announcing the Conductor Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server We’re excited to launch the Conductor MCP server, delivering seamless AI integration for workflow orchestration. Built for full compatibility with Conductor OSS and Orkes Conductor, the MCP server enables AI agents to: - Create and execute workflows - Retrieve execution history - Access task and workflow metadata This makes Conductor the “Execution Arm of AI”, giving autonomous agents real, production-grade control over orchestration. Ready to get started? → Clone the repo and plug it into your agent framework. 🔗 Read blog: https://zurl.co/m3Dgg #AI #AgenticAI #ConductorMCP #WorkflowAutomation #OrkesConductor #ConductorOSS #MCP
