Documentation

README

Saga Orchestration

Patterns for managing distributed transactions and long-running business processes without two-phase commit.

Inputs and Outputs

What you provide:

  • Service boundaries and ownership (which service owns which step)
  • Transaction requirements (which steps must be atomic, which can be eventual)
  • Failure modes for each step (transient vs. permanent, retry policy)
  • SLA requirements per step (informs timeout configuration)
  • Existing event/messaging infrastructure (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS, etc.)

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
