Key capabilities
Durable execution: Code automatically stores completed steps and resumes from where it left off when recovering from failures. Built-in state: Maintain state beyond workflow executions and share it between functions with strong consistency guarantees. Reliable communication: Call services sync or async with guaranteed execution and exactly-once semantics. Time-based coordination: Sleep, schedule, and wait for external events with durable timers. Workflows: Coordinate long-running processes, human approvals, listen to webhooks and other signals.Common use cases
