St. Louis Java Users Group August 2025: Durable Execution with Temporal

About the Presentation: Cloud computing and microservices changed how we approach software development, but the inherent challenges of distributed systems force developers to deal with failures, timeouts, and retries, leading to complex code that's difficult to debug and cumbersome to maintain. Even worse, software and hardware defects can cause applications to crash, resulting in incorrect behavior due to loss of application state. Failures are inevitable, but as you’ll see, they need not be disruptive. During this talk, you’ll learn about Durable Execution, which is based on nearly two decades of work on large-scale distributed systems at Amazon, Microsoft, and Uber. You’ll also learn the basics of Temporal, an open source Durable Execution platform that resulted from this work. Through code walkthroughs and live demonstrations, you’ll see how a Java application is able to overcome failure scenarios, including a service outage and an application crash. About the Presenter: Alternating between software engineering and technical education roles, Tom Wheeler’s career has spanned multiple industries over 25 years. Prior to joining Temporal, he created and taught training courses at Cloudera, developed engineering software at Boeing as a consultant for Object Computing, Inc. (OCI), helped design and implement a high-volume distributed data processing system for WebMD, and wrote code for some of the earliest web applications at A.G. Edwards. He enjoys learning new things and teaching them to others. This has led him to present at dozens of developer events, from Bellevue to Berlin to Bengaluru, and is looking forward to getting to do it here in St. Louis.
