We will present an overview of Taskflow: a Python library for OpenStack that helps make task execution easy, consistent, and reliable. TaskFlow allows the creation of lightweight task objects and/or functions that are combined together into flows (aka: workflows). It includes components for running these flows in a manner that can be stopped, resumed, and safely reverted. Projects implemented using the Taskflow library enjoy added state resiliency, and fault tolerance. The library also simplifies crash recovery for resumption of tasks, flows, and jobs. With Taskflow, interrupted actions may be resumed or rolled back automatically when a manager process is resumed. | We will present an overview of Taskflow: a Python library for OpenStack that helps make task execution easy, consistent, and reliable.

Possible Presentation Titles
Task, Workflow, and Job Management -- Working Code for OpenStack
This title describes our progress at the time of the summit and hopefully drives the right technical folks interested in this to come attend.
Workflow-as-a-Service: The State of the Convection Project and Future Plans
For people who were interested in the Unconference talk I gave last time, the term workflow-as-a-service may spart more attendance interest?
Taskflow: an OpenStack library that helps make task execution easy, consistent, and reliable
Perhaps this title most directly hits what the talk will be about.

Proposed Abstract
We will present an overview of Taskflow: a Python library for OpenStack that helps make task execution easy, consistent, and reliable. TaskFlow allows the creation of lightweight task objects and/or functions that are combined together into flows (aka: workflows). It includes components for running these flows in a manner that can be stopped, resumed, and safely reverted. Projects implemented using the Taskflow library enjoy added state resiliency, and fault tolerance. The library also simplifies crash recovery for resumption of tasks, flows, and jobs. With Taskflow, interrupted actions may be resumed or rolled back automatically when a manager process is resumed.
TaskFlow is proposed to be the foundation library for Convection[LINK] (Cloud based Workflow-as-a-Service capabilities for OpenStack). An update on the progress for TaskFlow (features and capabilities ready to be consumed by OpenStack projects) and a proposed path for possible integration into Oslo and development of Convection will be presented.
