Distributed workflow is a technique for coordinating and executing tasks across multiple computers or devices in a distributed system. It is a powerful tool for handling complex and time-consuming tasks that can be broken down into smaller, independent subtasks. Distributed workflow enables these subtasks to be processed concurrently, resulting in faster execution times and improved efficiency.
