Skipper: Building Airbnb’s embedded workflow engine
Airbnb engineers built Skipper, a lightweight, embedded workflow engine to solve durable execution. It allows teams to write business logic without infrastructure concerns, resulting in a durable, multi-step process expressed as a single workflow class with side effects isolated behind actions. This design enables developers to write readable, maintainable code while promoting the reuse of domain logic, reducing the cost of solving durable execution across the organization.
