Building durable workflows on Postgres eliminates the need for external orchestrators like Temporal and Airflow by using the database itself to coordinate workflow execution and checkpoint progress. Application servers directly communicate with Postgres to dequeue and execute workflows, providing simpler scalability, availability, observability, and security compared to centralized orchestration systems.
