This post introduces Cloudflare Workflows, a new durable execution engine built on Cloudflare Workers. Workflows allows developers to build reliable, multi-step applications that automatically handle retries, state persistence, and scaling, abstracting away infrastructure management. It leverages Durable Objects and SQLite for state management, enabling complex use cases like post-processing file uploads, text extraction via Workers AI, and interaction with vector databases. The post also details the architecture of Workflows, highlighting its reliance on Workers, Durable Objects, and Account Controllers.
