> In addition, it is a durable execution platform for long-running and reliable workflows. It is based on Temporal, hiding many of its infrastructure and coding complexities.
You only hide it for as long as things go smoothly. When a thing breaks then ur hosed. Having seen people try to self host cadence/temporal (not super easy) this makes me skeptical.
My thoughts as well.. Libraries where the only reason to exist is 'hide this other complex library in the cupboard so you don't have to learn it' almost never achieve that goal, and are generally harmful to net complexity imho.
Hiding is actually not the main thing here. AK allows you to "deploy in a click" instead of deploying the actual workers. We also provide integrations with built in authentication for external services such as Slack, JIRA, etc.
so last time i used temporal, it has 3-4 separate "services" that need to be deployed in a cluster configuration (not 1 instance) and then they are dependent on a performant cassandra cluster. its certainly not easy.
Hey, author here. We love durable functions and the ease it provides for building stuff. We provide an OSS as well as SaaS "serverless" platform to easily get started with durable functions using vanilla python.
I am sorry i dont understand, what exactly does this library do? Is it a competitor to rapidAPI that lets you quickly integrate APIs in your python app
