We are pleased to announce the general availability of Oracle MicroTx 26.1.
This release introduces durable workflow orchestration based on the open-source Conductor (formerly known as Netflix Conductor) project alongside MicroTx’s distributed transaction coordination capabilities, enabling developers to build reliable enterprise applications with transactional consistency within workflows and across services, databases, and heterogeneous systems.
Oracle MicroTx 26.1 helps developers coordinate applications spanning microservices, Oracle Database, AI agents, SaaS applications, event systems, Blockchain/DLT networks, and legacy services.
What is Oracle MicroTx?
Oracle MicroTx helps developers coordinate distributed application logic across modern enterprise environments through two complementary capabilities:
Durable Workflows – Coordinate long-running business processes across databases, services, AI agents, SaaS applications, APIs, events, Blockchain/DLT networks, and legacy systems.
Distributed Transactions – Maintain consistency across services and systems using XA, Saga, and TCC transaction patterns.
Together, these capabilities allow developers to orchestrate business processes and transaction flows without assembling separate workflow, transaction, and orchestration technologies.
The workflow capability is built on the open-source Conductor project and enhanced with enterprise hardening including integration with JWT-based RBACs, Oracle Database integrations, AI and agentic workflow capabilities, Blockchain/DLT integrations, no-code tooling, and distributed transaction coordination.
Existing Conductor workflows can be migrated and run as-is, while incrementally adopting Oracle-native capabilities.
What’s new in Oracle MicroTx 26.1
Oracle MicroTx 26.1 expands the platform with durable workflow orchestration for coordinating long-running business processes across databases, services, events, AI agents, Blockchain/DLT networks, and enterprise systems.
A key differentiator is the ability to combine durable workflow orchestration with distributed transaction coordination.
| Area | Highlights |
| Workflow orchestration | Durable workflows, visual and JSON definitions, no-code tooling, human tasks, timers, schedules, and reusable templates |
| Transaction coordination | XA, Saga, and TCC support with compensation, recovery, and coordinated outcomes across workflow steps |
| Oracle Database integration | SQL and PL/SQL tasks, Oracle TxEventQ integration, and coordination of database operations with cloud-native services |
| AI and agentic workflows | AI agents, LLM tasks, AI planners, RAG, memory, prompt templates, MCP & tools integrations, contextual chatbots, AI guardrails, distributed transactions across tools and services |
| Blockchain and digital assets | Blockchain/DLT integrations, digital asset transaction workflows, and Web3 application support |
| Service and event orchestration | REST, gRPC, JSON-RPC, enterprise events, SaaS applications, and legacy system integration |
| Enterprise operations | Production hardening, human tasks and scheduling, observability, retries, compensation, recovery, and durable execution |
Why it matters
Modern applications increasingly coordinate work across databases, APIs, event streams, SaaS applications, AI services, microservices, Blockchain/DLT networks, and legacy systems. These processes often span long durations, require recovery and retries, involve both human and automated tasks, and must maintain reliable state across multiple systems.
Oracle MicroTx 26.1 provides an application execution layer for coordinating workflows, AI agents, events, services, digital asset operations, and transactions across enterprise environments.
Its primary differentiator is the combination of durable workflows and distributed transaction coordination in a single platform. By supporting XA, Saga, and TCC patterns across workflow steps, MicroTx enables organizations to coordinate long-running business processes while preserving consistency where it matters most.
For Oracle Database customers, MicroTx provides a natural way to orchestrate Oracle Database operations, PL/SQL procedures, Oracle TxEventQ, AI Vector Search, and distributed transactions across cloud-native and enterprise environments.
For AI-enabled applications, MicroTx enables AI agents and planners to participate in governed business processes. AI planners dynamically orchestrate workflows using enterprise knowledge, policies, and available tools.
For existing Conductor users, MicroTx provides a straightforward migration path, allowing teams to run existing workflows unchanged while gradually adopting Oracle-native integrations, AI capabilities, Blockchain/DLT connectivity, enterprise hardening, and transaction coordination.
Example use cases
- Orchestrating end-to-end order processing across Oracle Database, SaaS applications, AI agents, and legacy systems with transactional consistency.
- Coordinating financial transactions across fiat and digital assets, microservices, Oracle Database, and blockchain ledgers using XA, or Saga transaction patterns.
- Building event-driven business automation using Oracle TxEventQ and enterprise events.
- Creating agentic applications where AI agents invoke tools, use enterprise context, follow guardrails, and participate in durable workflows to accomplish complex business objectives.
- Building digital asset and Web3 workflows that combine enterprise application logic with Blockchain/DLT operations.
- Modernizing legacy applications by exposing business capabilities as services and orchestrating them through workflows.
- Migrating existing Conductor applications to MicroTx and extending them with Oracle Database integration, AI capabilities, no-code tooling, Blockchain/DLT support, and transaction coordination.
