What is Zenaton?
Zenaton is an open-source workflow orchestration platform that allows developers to code any complex business process in code. It handles asynchronous tasks, priorities, scheduling, errors and more out-of-the-box allowing developers to focus on implementing the business logic rather than building custom workflow engines.
Key features of Zenaton include:
- Model workflows in code using Python or JavaScript SDKs
- Robust task queue and scheduler to handle background jobs and processes
- Advanced error handling with retries, fallbacks and timeouts
- Tracking and monitoring of workflow executions
- Integrations with databases, external APIs and common data formats like CSV and JSON
- Horizontal scaling to handle high workload
Zenaton follows a code-first approach to workflow automation allowing full control over workflow logic and behavior through code. This makes it easy to tweak and enhance workflows without needing to re-design visual workflow diagrams. The platform handles the complexity of asynchronous execution, distributed tasks and scalability behind the scenes.
Zenaton can be used to automate business processes like order fulfillment, claims processing, onboarding flows, data processing pipelines, scheduled notifications and more. Its event-driven architecture makes it suitable for complex processes that evolve over time.
