A remote control for your agents | Restate Fine-grained control over in-flight and failed requests: cancel, pause, resume, restart.

Most AI agent tools let you watch your agents fail 🍿
Restate lets you do something about it 🎮

⏸️ Pause during outages
❌ Kill stuck retry loops
🔄 Restart from a specific step, keep the work done
💬 Update in-flight agent calls

Your agents deserve a remote control: www.restate.dev/blog/a-remot...

@restate.dev v1.6.1 + v1.6.2 just dropped 🛠

☠️ fixed leadership thrashing that could destabilize clusters
🧠 slashed per-invocation memory (gigabytes saved)
🔑 fixed lazy state keys stuck in retry loops
📦 weekly Docker security refreshes

AWS's recent us-east-1 outage hit ChatGPT, Snapchat, and Perplexity. In 2021: Netflix, Disney+, Robinhood.

The problem? No true geo-replication.

We show how @restate.dev makes it simple with zero downtime during a simulated region failure:
www.restate.dev/blog/geo-rep...

If yesterday's AWS outage made you rethink your infrastructure, this blog post shows exactly how to build apps that stay up when the cloud goes down.

AWS’s us-east-1 outage took down ChatGPT, Snapchat & Perplexity.

The same happened in 2021: Netflix, Disney+, and Robinhood all went dark.

The reason? Often a lack of true geo-replication.

Here's how you can run apps with zero downtime during a region failure using Restate 🧵

Webhooks that just work with @restate.dev

✅ Event persistance - let Restate acknowledge and persist the event
✅ Reliable processing - leverage Durable Execution to run until completion
✅ Idempotency - use Idempotency-Key to deduplicate

🚀 Restate 1.4 just dropped! 10x faster failure detection, automatic workload rebalancing, and 2.5x quicker startup. Your distributed applications just got more resilient with less downtime and better resource utilization. Build more, worry less. #Restate #Resilience restate.dev/blog/announc...

Restate 1.3 - Resilient Concurrency - Community Meeting May 2025 YouTube video by Restate

Watch the community meeting on Restate 1.3 here:

We replaced 400 lines of StepFunctions ASL with 40 lines of TypeScript by making Lambdas suspendable We show you a new way to build complex business processes on AWS Lambda, where you can do everything with sequential code and service-style RPCs, no workflow DSL or plumbing events.

Prefer AWS Lambda or another FaaS provider? Have a look at this previous blog post we wrote:
restate.dev/blog/we-repl...
#serverless #AWSLambda

Restate lets you write resilient sagas in clean, readable code that handles failures gracefully.

Check out the updated sagas guide: docs.restate.dev/guides/sagas/

#DistributedSystems #Microservices #Sagas

Restate auto-retries temporary issues like network glitches. But for business logic failures ("Hotel fully booked"), retrying won't help. Instead, Restate helps you gracefully undo previous steps using sagas - each action has a matching "undo" step that runs when needed.

Hey everyone, I’ll be in New York on June 24/25. If you want to talk about @restate.dev, durable execution, challenges in how to productionize agentic workflows or just grab a coffee, then let me know. Happy to meet you in NY 😊

🚀 Big news! @restate.dev 1.3 is here — and it makes handling concurrency a breeze. Complex flows? Restate journals them, making everything replayable and fault-tolerant so you can sleep easy.

Dive in 👉 restate.dev/blog/announc... to see what’s new!

Restate service handler written in Kotlin, showing how to implement a scatter/gather use case with few lines of code in a resilient way.

Coming up in @restate.dev 1.3: Implement scatter/gather scenarios with ease, while keeping your application resilient to failures! Those sub tasks can fail, the orchestrator itself can fail, and yet this code will run to completion thanks to Restate "run to completion" semantics.
