LH

LittleHorse is a high-performance microservice orchestration engine that allows developers to build scalable, maintainable, and observable applications. By allowing LittleHorse to manage coordination and sequencing of your applications, you no longer have to worry about:

  • Wiring microservices together with RPC calls or message queues.
  • Retries, timeouts, dead-letter queues.
  • Distributed tracing and debugging across multiple microservices.
  • Scheduling actions to asychronously happen in the future.
  • Backpressure and scalability.

Getting Started

Installing LittleHorse

  1. Install the LittleHorse CLI agent as follows:
brew install littlehorse-enterprises/lh/lhctl

Alternatively, you can install it from our GitHub Releases page

  1. Next, run LittleHorse Server and Dashboard using our standalone docker image:
docker run --name littlehorse -d -p 2023:2023 -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/littlehorse-enterprises/littlehorse/lh-standalone:latest
  1. Verify the server is installed and running using lhctl
-> lhctl version
lhctl version: 0.11.0 (Git SHA homebrew)
Server version: 0.11.1
  1. Navigate to the dashboard at http://localhost:3000

  • Define tasks which are units of work that can be used in a process, and implement programs that execute those tasks.
  • Define your workflows and tell the workflow engine about it
  • Run the workflow
