DBOS Product Updates

October DBOS product updates (https://www.dbos.dev/blog/whats-new-in-dbos-october-2026?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=448680940&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8HrM1uxp_ArvYweLSpK7n_Hl5FqDtnML5hcLzbaXYiXncxaOBflxI7zdnIat4VNhDE45uwbYWQabHEmjbczFCXYBnENThTxOYf_omiZg-Bn3iYLF8811BU-i2AK8EY5XnqJGsb&_hsmi=448680940 )

Workflow rewind, safer distributed execution, DBOS Enterprise repackaging, and scaling to 1M+ workflows per second on sharded Postgres.

Suspending workflows (https://docs.dbos.dev/python/tutorials/workflow-tutorial?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=448680940&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8HrM1uxp_ArvYweLSpK7n_Hl5FqDtnML5hcLzbaXYiXncxaOBflxI7zdnIat4VNhDE45uwbYWQabHEmjbczFCXYBnENThTxOYf_omiZg-Bn3iYLF8811BU-i2AK8EY5XnqJGsb&_hsmi=448680940#suspending-workflows )

DBOS now has the ability to suspend workflows, putting long-running workflows into a "deep sleep" that reduces memory, queue, and other resources to zero until they awake.

Rewinding workflows to any step (https://docs.dbos.dev/typescript/tutorials/workflow-management?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=448680940&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8HrM1uxp_ArvYweLSpK7n_Hl5FqDtnML5hcLzbaXYiXncxaOBflxI7zdnIat4VNhDE45uwbYWQabHEmjbczFCXYBnENThTxOYf_omiZg-Bn3iYLF8811BU-i2AK8EY5XnqJGsb&_hsmi=448680940#rewinding-workflows )

Rewind a workflow to a chosen step and re-run it under the same workflow ID.
