Restate now lets you restart failed agents from any step. Imagine an insurance claim agent parses documents, asks 3 human approvals, and then fails at reimbursement due to a currency conversion bug. Deploy the fix and restart from the failed step, right in the UI.

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!

See the release notes for all the details: github.com/restatedev/res… github.com/restatedev/res…

@restatedev v1.6.1 + v1.6.2 just dropped 🛠️ We squashed some bugs and reduced the memory footprint! ☠️ fixed leadership thrashing that could destabilize clusters 🧠 slashed per-invocation memory 🔑 fixed lazy state keys stuck in retry loops 📦 weekly Docker security refreshes

📢 Restate Cloud now comes with important security and compliance capabilities: → SOC 2 Type I certification (Type II coming soon) → Enterprise SSO with SAML/OIDC support → RBAC → Client-side journal encryption → HIPAA BAAs for enterprise customers

Restate 1.6 is here! More control over your invocations, native multi-cloud support, and less tuning and operational overhead. Check out what's new 👇

New release coming up! Join us on Wednesday for an overview and demo of Restate 1.6. Sign up here: luma.com/y2f1z2m3

AI recruiting workflows that scan CVs, extract skills, process transcripts. Deliveru built it serverless on AWS Lambda with Restate Cloud: candidates modeled as Virtual Objects, human approvals, safe versioning. Fully resilient, zero infra. restate.dev/use-cases/deli…

Building custom solutions for workflow orchestration is hard (race conditions, timing issues). Even for the best teams. Unkey switched to Restate in less than a day and now uses it for workflows, event handling, concurrency control, scheduled tasks,... ➡️restate.dev/use-cases/unkey

We love it when users share how they think about Restate and its problem space, and how that thinking evolves. It's refreshing to see the project through different lenses, and helps everyone in the community to understand it more deeply. Thank you @MrSuperSecret for sharing!

🌲 Restate’s Google ADK integration was part of Google’s Advent of Agents! It brings durable, resilient agents with automatic retries, long-running workflows, human approvals, and serverless-friendly execution.

Durable orchestration that gets your AI agents to production without spending months on glueing together infra (queues + databases + workflow orchestrators + ...). Read more: restate.dev/blog/durable-o…

OpenAI Agents SDK + Restate gives you: - automatic failure recovery - resilient multi-agent orchestration - durable chat sessions - resilient human approval - cancel/pause/roll back/re-attach - detailed observability - long-running agents - serverless

AI Agents is one of the use cases where it is graspable why 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 are a better abstraction than 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀. With Durable Functions, you wrap steps you want to be durable (e.g., inference calls, tool calls) and don't need to refactor the code into workflows and activities. The Agent stays a long running process (except for suspensions and failover), so caches or expensive transient state keeps working naturally. If you still need to move steps to a separate physical process, make the step its own Durable Function that is called from the agent function - voilà. You show this to an app developer, and it will look familiar to them, because it is just service handlers (functions) that call/rpc each other.

This is a longer but great read on the power of building apps on a durable foundation and @restatedev. The problem was 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 - a problem many apps have. Combined with some multi-step operations. This maps naturally to Restate's durable functions and objects. They drive this from Kafka events with exactly-once guarantees. Restate.dev is not just another durable execution platform, it is a broader way to simplify how we built apps. #heading-why-i-chose-restate" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ravilanka.hashnode.dev/durable-execut…

🎉 Restate operator v2.1.0 released with operator-driven cluster provisioning! 🎯 Set cluster.autoProvision: true and let the operator deploy and provision your @restatedev clusters. Perfect for multi-node deployments on #Kubernetes github.com/restatedev/res…

Let your agent send async notifications with Restate. ✓ Durable promises survive failures ✓ Works for tasks taking millis to months ✓ Zero extra infra required Production-ready with 5 lines of code

Saw the new "Notify" button in Claude? Here's how to add it to your AI agents: Without Restate, you need: - queue to persist incoming requests - database + code to get/store notification requests - retry/recovery logic - periodic cleanup or 5 lines of code with Restate ⬇️
