Orch8 – Durable workflow engine in Rust, one binary, Postgres or SQLite
by _alphageek·May 5, 2026·26 points·5 comments
AI Analysis
●●●BangerSolve My ProblemBig Brain
Temporal's durability guarantees in one Rust binary — no Cassandra cluster required.
Strengths
- •State-snapshot durability with crash recovery in a single binary instead of multi-service cluster.
- •First-class primitives for Parallel, Race, TryCatch, and LLM/HumanReview handlers built-in.
- •Workers in any language via REST long-poll — no Python or JVM dependency lock-in.
Weaknesses
- •Only 1 star and 0 forks on GitHub — unproven in production despite solid architecture.
