Temporal

Durable workflows: code that survives failures and restarts.

ServiceOpen source

Durable execution platform that resumes long workflows exactly where they stopped, with managed retries, timers and state.

When to use

For long, critical processes (payments, onboarding) that must not be lost on failure.

When to avoid

For simple background tasks, where a job queue solves it with far less operations.
