I love it. It's way more easier than messing with Apache Airflow. Especially when you have all business logic in Cloud Functions. But Workflows product has one significant drawback - lack of Plug-n-Play adapters for various sources.
I am so interested in this. With exp from MS power automate (formally flow), I strongly suggest to get a more friendly "IDE" to model the whole processes
Some customers may be worried about vendor lock-in. And it would be nice to address that concern partially if possible. Otherwise a good launch. Inching the gap with AWS and Azure.
Nice information on Workflows, will you please also confirm if workflows store any user/application data. for example if invoice is created at cloud run and PDF generate at cloud function level, during these two steps does workflows store any invoice data. in the example you are showing at the outcome of previous step become the input, in that process does workflow store any data.
Thanks for sharing! I really believe in Serverless Architecture and Workflows is a great addition to that! Is GCP Workflows able to (AOT) start my Cloud Functions so that the Cloud Functions themselves won't suffer from Cold Starts? It should be possible to "predict" which functions would potentially be called and pre-warm them in case there are not enough functions ready to be used. Looking forward to seeing the next big improvements in Google's Serverless components!
I know that now you can finally set your Cloud Run services to a minimum that’s 1 or more, if that helps. If not, then presumably you could maybe make a special workflow that separately checks logic with lower thresholds to ping services to “warm” them up (if you allow it to scale to zero) to save a bit on costs, maybe. 🤔
How do you execute a workflow from a google cloud function ? In my case I have a list of task I need to run synchronesly. A pubsub function runs at a given moment, queries a list of items that need to enter the workflow, and then send them to workflow to be treated one at a time. Is this the right tool for this need ?
Any plans on expanding languages in which we can write the workflow logic? i rather use cloud run and create my own workflows w/auth to a bunch of services there than create logic in yaml

Very good, I was search for a service like this!

anyway to allow redirect if redirected by an http-get url response?
what is the similar function in google cloud as Lambda AWS....Could you please help me??
Great product
I was trying implement exception handling. in the except block can we call another python api ? ideally it should work but getting error.
Did you get this figured out?
Sir can give us latest 2020 coupon code for student GCP
Very interesting

That's basically temporal
don't think I would choose this over temporal.io. Much rather write workflow logic in code vs yaml :/
Temporal is so hard to host, even their cloud offering you need to manage certificates and such
awesome
