Benefits
Workflows replaces Sagas
Write business processes as top-down, readable code — one place to understand, not scattered event handlers
Workflows survive infrastructure failures and resume from the exact point of interruption — not from the beginning
Every workflow step recorded as a business-meaningful event in your existing event store
The integrations your production systems need
Dead Letter Queue, Snapshotting, Deadline management, and Event scheduling — all included
Kafka, AMQP, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Spring Cloud extensions out of the box
Distributed tracing and metrics endpoints for DataDog and beyond
Commercial support built for production
LTS coverage for organizations that need more time to migrate off AF4
Hands-on migration support — not documentation, direct help
Migration is a dependency change — code is 100% cross-compatible
