Workflow Orchestration Patterns

关于

Provides expert guidance on designing durable, long-running processes using the Temporal orchestration framework. This skill helps developers navigate critical architecture decisions, such as the strict separation between deterministic workflows and non-deterministic activities, while implementing complex patterns like Sagas for distributed transactions and Entity workflows for state management. It ensures system reliability by enforcing best practices around idempotency, retry policies, and state preservation, making it an essential resource for building mission-critical microservices and automated business processes that require guaranteed execution.
