Conductor is an open-source durable execution and workflow orchestration engine for microservices, event-driven workflows, and AI agents, originally created at Netflix and now maintained by Orkes. It provides a server with REST/gRPC APIs, a web UI, SDKs in seven languages, and native support for LLM agents, MCP tools, and A2A agent integration.
Use cases
- orchestrate microservices with retries and compensation
- run AI agents with durable, resumable execution
- build event-driven workflows triggered by webhooks and message brokers
- wrap existing LangChain or LangGraph agents in durable workflows
- fan out parallel tasks with human approval steps
- schedule and monitor long-running business processes
- self-host a workflow engine with Docker
When to choose
- you need durable, inspectable execution of long-running or multi-step workflows
- you want to orchestrate AI agents and tool calls with retries and approvals
- you need polyglot worker support across Java, Python, TypeScript, Go, C#, Ruby, or Rust
- you want a battle-tested orchestrator with an active community and optional enterprise support
When to avoid
- you only need simple cron-style scheduling without orchestration
- you want a low-code/no-code workflow tool for non-developers
- you need a lightweight in-process workflow library rather than a standalone server
- your team cannot operate a JVM-based service with external persistence
