we used Oban for a very early product (which we put on ice) called Supabase Workflows: https://supabase.com/blog/supabase-workflows

The reason we paused it was the realisation that it's far more powerful to co-locate this sort of product with the data. In this case, Workflows would be more powerful as a Postgres extension - you can store the workflows into your database, create them using SQL, and the workflows would have direct access to your operational data. We'll probably re-write this using pgx[0] at some stage (if anyone is reading this and wants to attempt this, please reach out).
