Hey fellow engineers! đź‘‹

If you're running Netflix Conductor in production, here's something exciting: you can run your existing Conductor workflows on Unmeshed — at 10x the scale and a fraction of the infrastructure cost. And no, we’re not just talking about compatibility. We’ve built an API-driven migration path designed specifically for developers like you.

Seamless, Optimized Migration

Our platform offers a one-click migration experience that:

  • Automatically translates your legacy Conductor definitions into Unmeshed process definitions.
  • Applies performance optimizations during the conversion—so your workflows aren’t just ported, they’re upgraded.
  • Preserves your business logic while boosting scalability and efficiency.

Built by the Original Conductor Engineers

Unmeshed is developed and maintained by the same engineers who built Netflix Conductor. We’ve lived through the challenges of deploying, scaling, and maintaining distributed orchestration systems—and we built Unmeshed to solve those exact problems, with zero friction.

Why Developers Love the Switch

After migrating to Unmeshed, here’s what you get:

  • 🚀 Simplified workflows — fewer steps, cleaner execution paths
  • đź§© Built-in patterns — abstract away boilerplate logic you’re currently writing manually
  • ⚙️ Language-agnostic SDKs — run your existing workers with higher throughput and lower resource usage

Unmeshed was designed to be instantly familiar for teams used to Conductor, while eliminating the pain points that come with scaling and maintaining it in production.
