News from Infinitic: New Website, Support Plans & Customer Spotlight.
Scaling Infinitic with Improved Resources and Support
Hello there! I’m Yvonne Jouffrault and have worked with Gilles over the last 5 years on several projects and companies. I recently joined the Infinitic team to help focus on growing visibility for our open source project AND offering more support to businesses that rely on Infinitic for mission critical projects at scale. [See our new support plans below!]
We’ve been talking with a lot of teams lately to understand the friction points of implementing Infinitic and downstream benefits that teams realize after they are in production. So far we’ve learned:
Frictions:
People are initially excited about Infinitic's potential, but often grapple with implementing its 'architectural pattern'. Infinitic eliminates the need to develop and maintain a variety of separate tools and systems: cron jobs, state management and continuous database polling, background workers, resilient API construction. Avoiding these disparate systems streamlines development, but the paradigm shift can be challenging to grasp at first.
Additionally, two main hurdles currently exist for adoption: teams must manage Apache Pulsar, and applications need to be written in Java or Kotlin. These requirements can present significant barriers, despite the potential benefits of Infinitic's unified approach.
Benefits: once teams have figured it out and are using it, they rave about how quickly they built their use case and how they can quickly (and reliably) make updates with new versions. See our customer spotlight below to hear more! 👇
So we’re focused on communicating how Infinitic works (see our new website!) and offering development support plans to help companies with implementation. We’ve also made improvements to the documentation to help teams get from 0-1 with a managed version of Pulsar (and we’re considering some ideas to enable applications in other languages to run workflows).
Infinitic has a new website!
Our new website is intended to give a high level overview of how Infinitic can help Application teams build scalable event-driven processes, how it works and some use cases. Check out and let us know what you think.
Infinitic Support Plans
While we’ve always offered support for companies using Infinitic, we’ve recently formalized our offering and now offer 2 tiers of support starting at $2,000/month. We also offer Co-development services which can include extending the functionality of Infinitic or developing complementary modules specific to the company's needs. Just hit reply if you would like more details.
Company Spotlight
Splio has been using Infinitic for almost 3 years and is running millions of workflow instances per day. Their platform enables mid-market retailers to build workflows that send personalized communications to customers based on their behavior and signals.
When Splio first implemented Infinitic 3 years ago, it enabled them to build the backend infrastructure and logic for this important feature on their platform in a matter of weeks instead of months - without compromising scalability or reliability.
Using Infinitic has also allowed them to easily make tweaks to the logic based on product requirements AND offered their clients flexibility in the personalization and timing of communications. Anytime they make updates to the logic or UI, they appreciate being able to deploy a new version of their workflows without disrupting running workflow instances.

About Infinitic:
Infinitic is an open source orchestration framework for application teams to build durable and flexible event-driven workflows without managing the complexities of infrastructure or accumulating tech debt.
Workflows as Code: Replace distributed logic and fragmented execution across crons and API calls with centrally managed workflows that define the logic for each instance according to incoming data and events.
Orchestration Layer: Infinitic is the central ‘brain’ of your microservices and communicates through events to trigger ‘tasks’ in multiple services at the right time - and manage the state of each workflow instance.
Built-in Durability: The state of each step is automatically stored and no messages are never lost. Workflows are reliable and any issues can easily be traced in any workflow instance and resolved and restarted. Includes an API for end to end observability
