Your Backend Is Full of Hidden Workflows

What starts as request handling gradually becomes retries, queues, callbacks, and coordination spread across the stack. Here is why that happens, and what changes when the workflow becomes explicit.

Why Use Unmeshed Instead of CRON or an In-House Workflow Engine?

Learn why teams move from CRON, Windows Scheduler, Kubernetes CronJobs, or in-house workflow engines to Unmeshed for reliable, visible, and scalable orchestration.

Stop Polling: Build File-Driven Workflows with Unmeshed

Replace cron jobs and polling scripts with a single file-watcher step in Unmeshed. See how the order_processing workflow reacts to new files the moment they appear — no polling, no cron, no scattered scripts.

Stop Writing Glue Code: Automate Lead Enrichment with Unmeshed and Supabase

Build a production-ready lead enrichment workflow using Unmeshed and Supabase. Validate signups, enrich domains with Hunter, verify emails with Kickbox, and route high-value leads to Slack.

Orchestrating Telecom Order Fulfillment Workflows at Scale

We demonstrate a telecom order fulfillment workflow and shows why the problem is less about connecting systems and more about coordinating processes.

Handling Large Payloads in Unmeshed Processes

Learn how to handle large files in an Unmeshed process by using Unmeshed Python Steps to download files to mounted storage, process them, and clean them up after execution.

How Orchestration Transforms Fraud Detection Workflows

Unmeshed streamlines fraud detection by orchestrating APIs to reduce manual reviews, helping banks cut costs, eliminate fragile scripts, substantially increase fraud prevention with predictable pricing.

Handling Wait Steps Inside While Loops in Unmeshed

Learn how to configure the Wait step correctly when it’s nested inside a While loop, prevent accidental instant completions, and keep your long-running workflows predictable and robust.

Calendar Scheduling in Unmeshed

Unmeshed has unveiled a new feature: Calendar Scheduling, which lets you define custom calendars that act as intelligent filters, ensuring workflows run only on specific and valid days. We offer our clients multiple methods to set up calendar-based scheduling, tailored to their needs.

Manage Business Logic with Wait Step

Some business processes need to be executed over a long period and wait between execution of specific Steps. The Wait Step exists exactly for this purpose -- it enables Process Authors to pause execution until a certain timestamp.

Does Perf Matter?

While traditional orchestration platforms prioritize features and reliability over raw performance, modern use cases often demand both high throughput and cost efficiency.

From One API to the Next: Simplifying Sequential API Calls

APIs play a vital role in modern software development, enabling seamless communication between systems and supporting scalable microservices architectures. However, orchestrating sequential API calls presents challenges such as reliability, error handling, cost sensitivity, rate limiting, and the need for robust monitoring, which can be addressed effectively by platforms like Unmeshed.

Orchestration versus Choreography

Microservices architecture in a highly distributed system requires effective communication, that’s exactly where the orchestration and choreography come into play.

Orchestration Platform for APIs, Overcoming the Limitations of Traditional Platforms

Most traditional orchestration platforms were designed for a very different set of goals it manages complex and long-running workflows that span multiple systems and involves robust state management and error handling.
