Asking what temporal is? The founders (Maxim Fateev and Samar Abbas) originally made Amazon Simple Workflow Service (SWF), Azure Durable Task Framework (DTF), and Uber Cadence. Temporal is the latest in the long line of workflow systems they've built. It's a task engine with state, recovery and highly scalable. It's cool stuff, and it simplifies many business workflows when it comes to recovery and scaling. There are many similar systems on the market today that mimic durable functions but Temporal is arguably the best.
