A brief introduction to why long-running business processes like mortgage applications are a natural fit for Temporal's durable workflow engine. The mortgage flow involves credit checks, property valuations, legal waits, and human-in-the-loop steps that can span weeks or months. Traditional architectures require building background jobs, state management, message queues, retry logic, and observability from scratch. Temporal replaces all of that with a linear, code-based workflow that handles retries, durable timers, external signals, and failure recovery through event replay — resuming exactly where execution left off without duplicating completed steps.
