Automatización y Workflows

Durable workflows that survive restarts, retries, and human review.

Temporal for durability, Airflow for batch, n8n for glue — humans removed from loops that don't need them, kept in loops that do. Retries, compensation, and human-in-the-loop steps that let you reason about correctness at 2 AM as well as at 2 PM.

Pilares

01

Temporal-shaped durability

Workflow-as-code with automatic checkpointing, retries, and compensation. Long-running processes become boring and debuggable.

02

Batch pipelines with lineage

Airflow or Prefect DAGs with data-lineage tracking, SLA alerts, and backfill discipline. When a run fails, you know what depends on it.

03

Event-driven glue

n8n and hand-rolled workers where full workflow engines are overkill. Retries, DLQs, and observability from the first commit.

04

Human-in-the-loop where it counts

Approval steps for irreversible actions — with SLAs, escalation, and audit trails. Approvals belong to a person, not a service account.

05

Idempotency by design

Every step safe to replay. The difference between a system that heals itself and one that pages you at 3 AM.

06

Backfills without pain

Historical reruns with cost and blast-radius controls. Finance and ops teams get replay-based confidence, not fingers crossed.

Vocabulario de dominio

Términos que separan a insiders de lectores.

Activity vs. workflow (Temporal)The determinism boundary. Confusing them causes the class of bug that only appears under retry.
CompensationThe undo half of a saga. Teams that skip it silently drift state on partial failures.
Idempotency keyThe string that makes 'retry safely' true. Without it, exactly-once is a marketing claim.
BackfillRerunning history against new logic. Named as an operation with a plan, not a Jira ticket.
DLQDead-letter queue. Teams that don't watch it discover their most creative bugs weeks late.
SagaThe pattern for long-running transactions across services. Everyone knows the word; few implement compensation correctly.
Determinism (Temporal)Workflow code that produces the same result on replay. Insiders design for it; outsiders debug it.
SLA propagationWhen one late step blows another team's SLA. Naming it is the start of fixing it.
