Temporal

Temporal is a candidate when workflows must survive failures without developers recreating execution state by hand. Its workflow definitions represent long-running processes, while task queues and workers advance execution. That resilience carries design obligations: developers must model activities, handle versions and operate or buy the supporting service. A simple periodic script rarely justifies the overhead. Shortlist Temporal for important multi-step business processes, then rehearse interruption and recovery. The decision hinges on reliability requirements rather than the number of automation connectors offered.
