TALK
How OpenAI uses Temporal
ABSTRACT
This talk explains how OpenAI evolved Temporal from a useful orchestration tool into a production-ready platform used across many teams. It highlights the challenges of scaling adoption—such as developer friction, inconsistent infrastructure, and operational complexity—and how OpenAI addressed them by building a “paved road” with managed workers, workflows, and standardized configurations. Learn more how Temporal enables durable executio, and how a platform investment is what makes it repeatable and accessible across an organization.
