Examples

Learn Blazing Batch through real-world examples extracted from our production test suite of 100+ unit tests.

Getting Started

Basic Task Execution

Create and execute your first distributed task.

You'll learn:

• Initialize a Blazing app
• Create tasks with create_workflow_task()
• Retrieve results with gather()
• Proper resource cleanup

Time: 5 minutes

---

Parallel Execution

Execute multiple tasks concurrently for maximum throughput.

You'll learn:

• Create batch tasks efficiently
• Achieve 4-10x speedup with parallelization
• Optimize for different workload sizes
• Monitor concurrency levels

Time: 10 minutes

---

Advanced Topics

Error Handling

Handle failures, edge cases, and ensure pipeline resilience.

You'll learn:

• Validate parameters and workflows
• Handle timeouts and network failures
• Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
• Manage partial failures in batch operations

Time: 15 minutes

---

Concurrency Patterns

Master CRDT queue operations and multi-node coordination.

You'll learn:

• CRDT-based queue architecture
• Lock-free distributed operations
• Multi-app isolation patterns
• Network resilience strategies

Time: 20 minutes
