Its just like code I suppose, if you can read and understand and validate, you can use it to scale and otherwise it could end up being a vibe effort.
The runtime being the biggest value add from tools like this.
Like Airflow or Temporal or Unmeshed.
The value for me is the runtime not the ability to create stuff. Drag n drop is definitely dead. But so is coding by hand. Pick the right runtime for getting the value from tools like these.
1. a chance to correct problems you couldn't before because things evolved too much 2. don't break rules or agreements you have signed before
The first one is the key part - I think redoing something the second time almost always ends up in a better result. If you are paid to do it with enough resources and team then all the more easier.
This is basically a rewrite of Netflix Conductor which was the original platform we built while working at Netflix. At Netflix, infra was "free" so we were generous in all the dependencies we had on that - so we decided to rewrite for cost optimization in this version.
Unmeshed eliminates the glue code thats typically written for resiliency or connecting things together. And our design of execution also offers it the flexibility of being used as a real-time API orchestrator. It even comes with a managed SQLite service (as many as you need), which means we don't need a provider like Supabase to work with stateful workflows.
Fun fact is that in our company, everything we use is actually just static HTML UI built on top of the Unmeshed Platform as backend - like our CRM, SaaS management, Deployments, Finance etc.

Doing it regularly is probably wasting money especially in this economy.
Kids + full time - pick up the food on your way home? Medical condition - arrange for a routine cost effective delivery (like those meal delivery services who tend to deliver on their routes for free even?) work 2 jobs - pick up along the way somewhere can't drive? - use that routine delivery or find a way to cook or use a weekly meal delivery service etc.
But buying one off every other day paying the premium seems definitely a luxury. YMMV.
