Temporal
Durable execution platform that runs workflows resiliently and retries failed operations.
Temporal is a durable execution platform that runs units of application logic called workflows in a resilient manner. Developers use its SDKs to build applications whose state survives failures, with the server originating as a fork of Uber's Cadence.
