Hi everyone,
I’m working on migrating some long-running business processes to Temporal and would love to hear your experiences and best practices.
Specifically, I’m dealing with workflows that:
- Run for days or weeks (customer onboarding, approval chains)
- Need to handle human tasks and wait for external events
- Require visibility into current state for business stakeholders
How do you typically model these? Do you:
- Use signals for external events or prefer polling activities?
- Create child workflows for sub-processes or keep everything in one workflow?
- Handle versioning when business rules change mid-flight?
Any patterns or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
