This post demonstrates how combining Temporal's durable execution and distributed Worker model with the CNCF Serverless Workflows specification solves this. The open-source tool Thand acts as a bridge, implementing the Serverless Workflows spec with Temporal extensions. It introduces a 'providers' concept that automatically routes workflow tasks to the correct Temporal Worker and Task Queue in the right environment — whether that's a user's local device (for Osquery firewall checks), an internal gRPC entitlements service, or AWS Identity Center — without workflow authors needing to manually manage Task Queue topology. The result is declarative, distributed access workflows backed by Temporal's execution guarantees. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
