# apollo vs conductor

apollo and conductor share 10 technologies: Spring, org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-jdbc, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Postgres, org.springframework.security:spring-security-core, logback-classic, micrometer-registry-prometheus, org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator, and io.micrometer:micrometer-core. Both are written in Java.

- [apolloconfig/apollo](https://seerepo.com/r/apolloconfig/apollo): Apollo is a reliable configuration management system suitable for microservice configuration management scenarios.
- [conductor-oss/conductor](https://seerepo.com/r/conductor-oss/conductor): Conductor is an event driven agentic workflow engine providing durable and highly resilient execution engine for applications and AI Agents

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
