So this is not really a low-code system. But we manage a lot of our workloads using Netflix Conductor. Its a great platform that naturally promotes re-use of expensive functions. And it has a lot of resiliency features built in, which avoids a lot of code. There is a bunch of things it supports out of the box which has reduced the amount of code we write and over time we have built a repository of re-usable running workers (Netflix Conductor terminology) which makes building new use cases really fast.

But the real benefit we gained is the overall support time for issues during on-call. Without any additional tooling such as Datadog or other expensive products, we are able to manage support really easily with the UI that comes with it. So yes - we reduced complexity, save a lot of time, and are still able to code everything we must and this platform connects everything really well.

That does seem like a neat solution. Does it support user-tasks in workflows (i.e. block until someone clicks a button)?
