Applications break all the time, there could be a network issue, a cloud provider outage, or just a glitch in the matrix.

But as a developer, you really need your applications to be resilient without the need to recover databases and restart services manually.

In this session, Marc Duiker (Developer Advocate, Diagrid) demonstrates how Dapr Workflow provides durable execution, which enables you to write reliable workflows as code. In addition, Marc shows how resiliency policies in Dapr improve reliable communication across services and resources when developing distributed applications.

Marc goes into specific workflow features, such as scheduling, sequential and parallel execution, and waiting for external events. He shows many code samples (in C#) for each of these features and will run the applications using the Dapr CLI to demonstrate their resiliency.

By the end of the session, you will have a good grasp of how durable execution with Dapr workflow and resiliency policies can help you build resilient applications.
